Problems solved by technology

[0009] During the synthesis of poly-γ-glutamic acid by Bacillus licheniformis ATCC 9945a and Bacillus subtilis (natto), which are commonly used at present, there is a phenomenon that the properties of poly-γ-glutamic acid synthesized by the strain are unstable. After preservation or transfer , most of the colonies lost the ability to synthesize poly-γ-glutamate (Ashiuchi et al., 2001, Isolation of Bacillus subtilis (chungkookjang), a poly-γ-glutamate producer with high genetic competence.Appl.Microbiol.Biotechnol., 57 : 764-769.), this situation requires repeated purification of strains in the experimental process; at the same time, adopt Bacillus licheniformis ATCC 9945a to synthesize poly-γ-glutamic acid, and need to add high concentration of glycerol (to 80g / L) in the medium , thereby causing the fermentation cost to be too high, in addition there are also problems such as long fermentation cycle (2 days to 5 days) (Soon et al., 2000, Biotech.Lett., 22:585-588.; Borbely, 2001, Polymeric product, United States Patent 6,326,511); These problems have seriously restricted the industrialization process of poly-γ-glutamic acid
In addition, the molecular weight of poly-γ-glutamic acid biosynthesized by strains such as Bacillus licheniformis ATCC 9945a and Bacillus subtilis (natto) is below 3000KD ((Cromwick, etc., 1995a.Effect of magnese (II) on Bacillus licheniformis ATCC9945Aphysiology and γ- poly(glutamic acid) formation.Int.J.Biol.Macromol.17: 259-267.)), when using poly-γ-glutamic acid to synthesize polymer biomaterials, it has received great attention in terms of performance and application range. big limit
At present, it is only reported that the molecular weight of poly-γ-glutamic acid biosynthesized by Bacillus subtilis (chungkookjang) can reach 10,000KD. Whether it can be screened to produce strains with higher molecular weight of poly-γ-glutamic acid is urgently to be developed

Embodiment 1

[0047] Example 1: Isolation and identification of poly-γ-glutamic acid producing bacteria X-003:

[0048] Take the soil 5cm below the soil surface of the paddy field in the experimental farm of Huazhong Agricultural University, add an appropriate amount of sterile water, shake well, and dilute it by 100 times. Heat-treat the suspension at 80°C for 15 minutes, and apply LB (LB medium should be added per 1 liter of distilled water. The formula is as follows: peptone 10 g / L, NaCl 10 g / L, yeast extract 5 g / L , agar 20 g / liter, pH7.0) solid plate, through overnight cultivation, pick sticky colonies in 5 milliliters of poly-γ-glutamic acid screening medium E (E medium formula and production: see literature: Cromwick etc., Effect of magnese (II) on Bacillus licheniformis ATCC9945A physiology and poly-(glutamic acid) formation.

[0050] Embodiment 2: the HPLC analysis method of poly-γ-glutamic acid

[0051] The quantitative analysis and molecular weight determination of poly-γ-glutamic acid were completed by HPLC, chromatographic column: G6000PWXL, mobile phase was 25mM Na 2 SO 4 solution and acetonitrile in a ratio of 4:1. Purified poly-γ-glutamic acid was used as a quantitative standard, and the molecular weight standard was TSK standard Poly (ETHYLENE OXIDE).

[0052] The steps for determining the yield and molecular weight of poly-γ-glutamic acid are as follows: After quantitatively diluting the fermentation broth, adjust the pH value to 3.0, centrifuge at 10,000 rpm for 30 minutes, and collect the supernatant. The diluted fermentation broth was used to detect the concentration and molecular weight. The retention time of the fermentation product poly-γ-glutamic acid is 10min, and the molecular weight is above 10000KD (see figure 2 , 3 ) shown.
