[0003] The present disclosure relates to a method for producing L-glutamic acid by fermentation using bacteria. Background Art
[0004] Glutamic acid is an acidic amino acid. As an important nutrient for human growth, glutamic acid not only has special physiological effects, but also has unique functions in the food industry.
[0005] Currently, the most commonly used method for producing glutamic acid is fermentation, which has the advantages of a wide range of raw material sources, low production costs, controllable product quality, and a single product. For example, L-glutamic acid is mainly produced by fermentation using L-glutamic acid-producing bacteria called coryneform bacteria belonging to the genera Brevibacterium, Corynebacterium, and Microbacterium, or mutant strains thereof.
[0006] Recombinant DNA technology can improve microbial L-amino acid production. However, current strains producing glutamate still have poor fermentation performance and unsatisfactory glutamate conversion rates. Glutamic acid is the primary raw material for monosodium glutamate production, and industrial demand for it is extremely high. Existing strains are unable to meet the needs of large-scale industrial production. Summary of the Invention

[0182] Table 4. Glutamate content detection of recombinant strains
[0183] These shake flask results demonstrate that superimposing these 10 gene modifications on wild-type strain 14067 significantly improves glutamate production, with a continuous increase in glutamate conversion efficiency. Specifically, the glutamate conversion efficiency of MH14067-10 increased from 0.2% of the wild-type strain to 29.7%, without affecting growth or sugar consumption. Combined with the shake flask results in 1.1.3 and 1.2.3, this demonstrates that superimposing these 10 gene modifications significantly improves glutamate conversion efficiency, regardless of whether the starting strain is C. glutamicum ATCC13869, ATCC13032, or ATCC14067.
