The invention relates to
Escherichia coli JLTrp and application thereof to the
fermentation production of L-
tryptophan. The
Escherichia coli JLTrp has a culture collection number of CGMCC NO. 7.217. The application of the
Escherichia coli JLTrp to the
fermentation production of the L-
tryptophan comprises the following steps: performing
inoculation with mature cultures in a
fermentation tank, at a temperature of 34-36 DEG C, controlling pH (potential of
Hydrogen) in a staged manner by adopting
liquid ammonia replenishment, controlling dissolved
oxygen in the staged manner, controlling the pressure to be 0.03-0.08MPa and the
air volume to be 0.3-2.0VVM, controlling residual
sugar to be 0.01-0.5% in a process, and cultivating and preparing L-
tryptophan. A
bacterial strain of the
Escherichia coli JLTrp greatly improves the stability of the cultures, and reduces the generation, which is caused by insufficient conditions, of an
organic acid, so that the
vitality of the cultures is improved, cultivation conditions are gradually lowered, and
energy consumption is greatly reduced.
Escherichia coli JLTrp provided by the invention can be used for the fermentation production of L-tryptophan, is relatively greatly improved in both yield and percent conversion, and has obvious progress.
