AI Technical Summary
The existing microbial production of 1-deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) has problems such as long fermentation cycle and low product concentration. The existing modification strategies are limited to known genes, resulting in limited room for production improvement.
By identifying and utilizing the ybbA gene, constructing an expression cassette and vector system, and performing gene knockout and overexpression, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens LH-2 was modified to improve the efficiency of DNJ synthesis.
The DNJ production was significantly improved, and the DNJ production of the ybbA overexpression strain increased by 50%, solving the problem of low yield and providing a reliable target for the construction of industrial high-yield strains.
