Dissolved oxygen (DO) is an key factor for lipopeptide fermentation. To better understand the link between oxygen supply and lipopeptide productivity in CMT-6, the mechanism of DO on the synthesis of antimicrobial lipopeptides by CMT-6 was examined. The production of surfactin and iturin of CMT-6 was detected by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer (LC-MS) under different DO conditions and transcriptome analysis was performed. At 100 and 200 rpm, the lipopeptides productions were 2753.62 mg/L and 3452.90 mg/L, respectively. There was no significant change in the yield of iturin but that of surfactin increased by 64.14%. Transcriptome analysis revealed that the enriched differential genes were concentrated in the GO term of oxidation-reduction process. The marked enrichment of the lipopeptides synthesis pathway, including microbial metabolism in diverse environments and carbon metabolism in the two-component system, were observed. More importantly, the expression levels of the four surfactin synthetase genes increased at higher DO, however, the iturin synthetase gene expression did not. Furthermore, modular surfactin synthetase was overexpressed (between 9- and 49-fold) at 200 rpm but not at 100 rpm, which is suggestive of efficient surfactin assembly resulting in surfactin overproduction. This study provides a theoretical basis for constructing engineering strains with high lipopeptide production to adapt to different DO.
