Method for regulating expression of protein of interest in bacillus subtilis

The present disclosure relates to a method for regulating expression of protein of interest in Bacillus subtilis, and belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering. The method comprises: using Bacillus subtilis as an expression host, adding the N-terminal nucleotide sequence coding the first 15 amino acids of the endogenous protein before the coding gene of the protein of interest or modifying the original N-terminal nucleotide sequence coding the first 15 amino acids, and performing free expression in plasmid, thereby regulating expression of the protein of interest in Bacillus subtilis, and even regulating the expression difference in different growth phases and the expression level.

MICROORGANISMS AND METHODS FOR THE CONTINUOUS CO-PRODUCTION OF TANDEM REPEAT PROTEINS AND CHEMICAL PRODUCTS FROM C1-SUBSTRATES

Microorganisms are genetically engineered to continuously co-produce amino acids, proteins, microbial biomass, chemicals, or any combination thereof by microbial fermentation, particularly by microbial fermentation of a gaseous substrate. The microorganisms are C1-fixing. The production of ethylene, microbial biomass, and heterologous tandem repeat proteins can be improved. This can be effected by improved promoters or nutrient limiting means.
