  • Publication number: 20210261910
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a recombinant Bacillus subtilis for increasing the yield of menaquinone 7 (MK-7) and application thereof, and belongs to the field of genetic engineering. In the present disclosure, 14 recombinant strains BS1-BS14 are constructed through the modification of genes related to the biosynthetic pathway of MK-7 on a chromosome of Bacillus subtilis, wherein BS6-BS14 significantly increase the yield of the MK-7, reaching up to 33.5 mg/L, which is 3.53 times the yield of the original strain of wild-type Bacillus subtilis 168. The present disclosure further provides a method for modifying the MK-7 biosynthetic pathway in microorganisms to increase the yield of the MK-7, providing a theoretical basis for constructing a high-yielding strain of the MK-7.
