As a kind of biosurfactants, iturin A has attracted people's wide attentions due to their features of biodegradability, environmentally friendly, etc.; however, high production cost limited its extensive application, and the aim of this research wants to improve iturin A production in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. Firstly, dual promoter was applied to strengthen iturin A synthetase expression, and its yield was increased to 1.

Iturin A is a biosurfactant with various applications, and its low synthesis capability limits its production and application development. Fatty acids play a critical role in cellular metabolism and target product syntheses, and the relationship between fatty acid supplies and iturin A synthesis is unclear. In this study, we attempted to increase iturin A production strengthening fatty acid synthesis pathways in .
