Brevibacterium flavum 1000 was used as the original strain and site-specific mutagenesis was performed in its ilvBN gene,resulting in an anti-feedback inhibition gene ilvBN'. The gene ilvC' encoding acetohydroxyacid isomeroreductase was obtained by site-directed mutagenesis from ilvC. The gene ilvBN'C' was obtained by overlap extension PCR from ilvBN' and ilvC,and then inserted into E. coli-B. flavum shuttle expression vector pXMJ19 to construct a recombinant plasmid pXMJ19-ilvBN'C'. The recombinant plasmid was subsequently transformed into B. flavum MH-1000,resulting in the strain MH-1032. The results from fed-batch fermentation experiments in 50 L fermenter indicated that the L-valine productivity of MH-1032 ( 38. 4 g /L) was increased by 9. 1% in contrast to that of MH1000 ( 35. 2 g /L) in 72 hours,and the conversion of glucose to L-val increased from 21. 7% to 25. 8%.
