Abstract: Described herein are genes involved in Firmicutes exopolysaccharide production. Also described are mutations to those genes and corresponding mutated proteins to increase or stabilise exopolysaccharide production or prevent exopolysaccharide autodegradation, in particular over the course of a fermentation. Further described herein are fermentation methods and uses of the mutated genes and proteins, and of the microorganisms and the exopolysaccharides.
