The present invention relates to a strain which has increased glutamine productivity due to being transformed with a vector containing a nucleotide sequence that encodes a glutamine synthetase consisting of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1.

The present invention relates to a method of producing a flavor by a co-fermentation process using mixed fermentation of two or more different microorganisms producing different products. The method of producing a flavor may produce a natural flavor capable of improving the taste and aroma of food and the overall sensory properties of food through a fermentation broth containing amino acids, nucleic acids and/or organic acids, which is produced by mixed fermentation of different microorganisms producing different products, that is, different kinds of amino acids, nucleic acids and/or organic acids. This flavor may be used in various food fields.

The present disclosure provides novel bacterial strains with altered expression or start codon modification of one or more RNA degradation/processing genes. The RNA degradation genes of the present disclosure are controlled by heterologous promoters. The present disclosure further describes methods for generating microbial strains comprising heterologous promoter sequences operably linked to RNA degradation/processing genes.

Provided is a method for producing 1,3-propanediol by means of fermentation of a recombinant microorganism. First, a recombinant microorganism is provided; the recombinant microorganism can overexpress acetyl-CoA carboxylase genes: accBC and accDA, a malonyl-CoA synthetase gene: mcr, a 3-hydroxypropionyl-CoA synthetase gene: pcs, a 3-hydroxypropionyl-CoA reductase gene: pduP, and a 1,3-propanediol reductase gene: yqhD. The recombinant microorganism is subjected to fermentation culture in a flask or fermentor using glucose ad as raw material to obtain the 1,3-propanediol. The recombinant microorganism can utilize low-cost glucose, sucrose, molasses, xylose and the like as raw material in the fermentation process, without additional expensive vitamin B12. Thus, cost of the production is significantly reduced, and there is a promising prospect in market.
