When the cells grow to OD 600 =0.1Add IPTG at a final concentration of 0.1 mM to induce λ-Red-mediated homologous recombination. Continue culturing until OD 600 =0.6, the bacteria were collected and each group was divided into five groups and transformed with pGRB-sgRNA-1 plasmid and Up-pBJ23119-gdhA (EC)-Down, pGRB-sgRNA-1 plasmid and Up-pBJ23119-gdhA (SA)-Down, pGRB-sgRNA-1 plasmid and Up-pBJ23119-gdhA (SA, optimized)-Down, pGRB-sgRNA-1 plasmid and Up-pBJ23119-rocG-Down, and pGRB-sgRNA-1 plasmid and Up-pBJ23119-gdh (CG)-Down, respectively.

[0203] L-arginine fermentation medium: the solvent is water, the solutes and their concentrations are glucose 8g / L, FM902 yeast powder 3g / L, K2HPO4•3H2O 6g / L, MgSO4•7H2O 1g / L, FeSO4•7H2O 0.05g / L, betaine 0.5g / L, VB12 0.005g / L, defoamer 0.3mL / L, ammonium sulfate 3g / L, pH 7.2.

[0208] As shown in the above fermentation results, whether the recipient strain is the high-yield L-arginine strain CGMCC NO. 25402 or the wild-type Escherichia coli W3110, the L-arginine production after the introduction of the glutamate dehydrogenase encoding gene (gdh) from Salmonella typhimurium is significantly higher than that of the recipient strain, but overexpression of the rocG gene from Bacillus subtilis and the gdh gene of Corynebacterium glutamicum has no obvious effect (Table 2 and Table 3). At the same time, the L-arginine production of the recombinant bacteria introduced with the optimized glutamate dehydrogenase encoding gene (SEQ ID NO.5) of Salmonella typhimurium is significantly higher than that of the recombinant bacteria introduced with the glutamate dehydrogenase encoding gene (SEQ ID NO.4) of wild-type Salmonella typhimurium (Table 4).

Each strain was repeated three times. After the fermentation was completed, the L-glutamic acid content was detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the results were averaged over three replicates, as shown in Tables 6 and 7.

[0216] The results showed that the introduction of the glutamate dehydrogenase encoding gene (gdh) from Salmonella typhimurium into Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC13032 and CGMCC NO. 21220 could significantly increase the L-glutamate production of the recipient bacteria, but overexpression of the rocG gene from Bacillus subtilis and the gdh gene of Corynebacterium glutamicum had no significant effect (Table 6 and Table 7). At the same time, the recombinant bacteria introduced with the optimized Salmonella typhimurium (SEQ ID NO.5) had a significantly higher L-glutamate production than the recombinant bacteria introduced with the glutamate dehydrogenase encoding gene (SEQ ID NO.4) before optimization (Table 8).
