  • Publication number: 20240294866
    Abstract: Provided is a method for introducing a point mutation to a BBD29_04920 gene coding sequence in Corynebacterium or improving the expression thereof. The point mutation causes a mutation to the base at position 1560 in the BBD29_04920 gene sequence from cytosine (C) to adenine (A) such that asparagine at position 520 of a coded corresponding amino acid sequence is substituted by lysine. The method can increase fermentation yield of glutamic acid in a strain with the mutation. Also provided are the bacterium generating L-glutamic acid, a nucleic acid and protein comprising the mutation, a recombinant vector and recombinant strain comprising the nucleic acid, and use of these biomaterials in the regulation of the production of L-glutamic acid of a microorganism.

  • Publication number: 20240076701
    Abstract: Provided are a recombinant strain with modified gene BBD29_14900, and a method for constructing the same and use thereof, with the production of L-glutamic acid as a specific application. Further provided is a method for introducing a point mutation into the BBD29_14900 gene coding sequence in Corynebacterium or improving the expression thereof. The method can cause a bacterial strain with the mutation to increase the fermentation yield of glutamic acid. The point mutation involves a mutation of the base at position 1114 in the sequence of the BBD29_14900 gene from guanine (G) to adenine (A), and thus a substitution of aspartic acid at position 372 in the coded corresponding amino acid sequence with asparagine.
