Abstract:
The
spoIIE gene was knocked out of
Bacillus clausii QL-1,and the experiment studied the influence of bacteria sporulation biomass and amylase activity.Electrotransformation of overlapping
spoIIE-
Cmr fragments into
B.clausii QL-1competent cell made rapid knockout of the
spoIIE gene by only one time homologous single exchange. It successfully obtained
spoIIE gene deletion strain
B.clausii QL-1Δ
spoIIE. Compared with the original strain,the sporulation rate of
B.clausii QL-1Δ
spoIIE decreased to 0.48% at 28 h and the biomass increased by 20% at 20 h. Amylase activity was 5.58 times that of the original strain at 84 h. The maximum biomass of
B.clausii QL-1Δ
spoIIE strain reached 7.2 mg·mL
-1 by fed-batch fermentation at 80 h,and the amylase activity reached 690 U·mL
-1 at 84 h,increased by 33.30%,compared with that before unfeeding.It was verified that the
spoIIE gene was a key gene for the sporulation of
B.clausii QL-1,and its deletion had a certain effect on the production of amylase,which was of great significance for the subsequent construction of industrial strains of enzyme activity
Bacillus.
