Abstract: Xanthan Gum is an important microbial polysaccharide which is widely used in various industries.With thedevelopment of genetic engineering,the scientific research on xanthan gum have turned from bacteria selection,medium,fermen-tation and metabolic flux to the gene and enzyme engineering ,and also make a rapid progress.

Key words: xanthomonas campestris, genetic engineering, fermentation
