Method for producing l-valine
By genetically engineering Escherichia coli, mutating the thrA gene and its upstream regulatory region, and increasing the copy number of related genes, a pathway specifically consuming pyruvate and NADH was formed, solving the problems of high production cost and insufficient anaerobic growth capacity of L-valine, and realizing efficient L-valine fermentation production.

Abstract
Provided are a method for improving the yield of L-valine and a modified bacterium, wherein the genome of the bacterium comprises a modification for reducing the feedback inhibition of L-threonine on L-threonine synthesis, and the modified bacterium can achieve production under anaerobic and aerobic conditions. In addition, a method for increasing the yield of L-valine by means of using the modified bacterium is also provided.
