Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of molecular biology technology, and particularly relates to an RR mutant protein, a mutant gene, a recombinant vector, an engineered bacterium, its construction method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] L-arginine is an organic compound with the molecular formula C6H2O. 14 N4O2, with a density of 1.46 g / cm³ and a molecular weight of 174.201, is a white crystalline powder. It is abundant in protamine and other proteins, and is a basic component of various proteins, exhibiting a wide range of properties.
[0003] L-arginine is a basic amino acid, non-essential for adults but produced slowly in the body. It is an essential amino acid for infants and young children and has a certain detoxification effect. L-arginine has wide applications in the food, pharmaceutical, feed, and cosmetic industries. In the food industry, L-arginine is commonly used as a flavoring agent and beverage additive. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is used to produce various drugs for treating hyperammonemia, as an oral amino acid supplement, relieving fatigue, improving liver function, and regulating endocrine function. Furthermore, adding L-arginine to animal feed can promote animal growth and development, repair intestinal damage, enhance immunity, and prevent various diseases. As a basic amino acid, L-arginine is also widely used as a neutralizing agent and moisturizer in cosmetics.

However, protein hydrolysis suffers from drawbacks such as cumbersome operation, high purification costs, low recovery efficiency, and environmental pollution. In recent years, microbial fermentation has become the mainstream method for L-arginine production, but there is still significant room for improvement in both yield and efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a method to increase the yield of L-arginine through microbial fermentation, providing technical support for large-scale, efficient fermentation production of L-arginine.

[0091] Example 6 L-Arginine Fermentation Test
[0092] 1. The *Corynebacterium glutamicum* DXMC-DXA2 and the original strain (*Corynebacterium glutamicum* ATCC13032) prepared in Example 5 were inoculated into 100 mL of LBG medium and cultured at 220 rpm and 30 °C for 16 h. The viable cell concentration of the resulting seed culture was 3.6 × 10⁻⁶. 8 CFU / mL;
[0093] The LBG medium has the following components: 10 g / L peptone, 5 g / L yeast extract, 10 g / L NaCl, 5 g / L glucose, and the remainder is water.
[0094] 2. Subsequently, each culture medium was inoculated at a volume percentage of 5% into 100 mL of fermentation medium and fermented at 30°C for 50 h.
[0095] The fermentation medium has the following components: glucose 30 g / L, corn steep liquor 40 g / L, (NH4)2SO4 10 g / L, CH3COONa 15 g / L, urea 8 g / L, L-alanine 1.67 g / L, KH2PO4 4 g / L, MgSO4·7H2O 2.13 g / L, FeSO4·7H2O 0.04 g / L, MnSO4·H2O 0.06 g / L, biotin 0.002 g / L, leucine 0.08 g / L, with the remainder being water.
[0096] 3. Samples were taken at 12h, 24h, 36h, and 48h of fermentation, and the L-arginine content in the fermentation broth was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using an Agilent Technologies instrument. The average value of the three fermentation measurements was taken, and the results are shown in Table 1. The OD was measured by ultraviolet spectrophotometer. 600 The values are shown in Table 2.
[0097] Table 1. L-arginine production of Corynebacterium glutamicum DXMC-DXA2 and the original strain
[0098]
[0099] Table 2. OD values of Corynebacterium glutamicum DXMC-DXA2 and the original strain 600 value
[0100]
[0101] As shown in Table 1, after 48 hours of fermentation, the L-arginine yield in the *Corynebacterium glutamicum* DXMC-DXA2 fermentation broth reached 1.24 g / L, while the original strain yielded only 1.07 g / L after 48 hours. The L-arginine yield of *Corynebacterium glutamicum* DXMC-DXA2 was 15.9% higher than that of the original strain. Furthermore, the fermentation time for *Corynebacterium glutamicum* DXMC-DXA2 to reach 1.01 g / L was 24 hours, while the original strain only achieved a yield of 0.99 g / L after 36 hours of fermentation. Compared to the original strain, this represents a saving of approximately 12 hours of fermentation time. This indicates that *Corynebacterium glutamicum* DXMC-DXA2 has a faster growth rate than the original strain, thus saving fermentation time and costs.
[0102] The data in Table 2 show that the OD values of Corynebacterium glutamicum DXMC-DXA2 were [data missing] at 12h, 24h, 36h, and 48h of fermentation. 600 The values were all greater than the OD of the original bacteria. 600 The value indicates that the biomass of Corynebacterium glutamicum DXMC-DXA2 also increased, with the largest increase of 14.5% observed after 12 hours of fermentation. Because Corynebacterium glutamicum DXMC-DXA2 grows rapidly, it can become the dominant bacterium compared to other strains, preventing the growth of other strains and thus reducing the chance of contamination.

It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
