The invention discloses construction and application of an
engineering strain capable of normally growing at 35 DEG C and realizing high yield of
xanthan gum. The method comprises the following steps: by taking
xanthomonas campestris XC1 as an initial strain, carrying out ARTP
mutagenesis treatment, and screening a
mutant strain which can normally grow under the condition of 35 DEG C; the
mutant strain is subjected to multiple rounds of superposition transformation, and multiple physiological restrictions under high
temperature stress are systematically broken by sequentially strengthening a
protein folding
system (grpE-ATGA-dnaK), activating outer
membrane stress regulation (rpoE), constructing an anti-oxidation barrier (katB) and strengthening a
cell membrane structure (polCDE); the finally obtained
engineering strain shows the performance far better than that of an initial strain under the condition of 35 DEG C; the
biomass of the strain is increased by 207.7% compared with that of an initial strain XC1, and the yield of
xanthan gum is increased by 75.5% and reaches 25.8 g / L, which is consistent with the yield of
xanthan gum under the
fermentation condition of 28 DEG C.
