Our previous work indicated that the vigor of Streptomyces decreased at the later stage of ε-poly-L-lysine (ε-PL) fermentation. In this study, we observed that the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in vivo increased sharply after 24 h, and the addition of an antioxidant glutathione (GSH) before this increase in ROS stimulated ε-PL synthesis in shake-flask fermentation. The enhancement of ε-PL production by GSH was further verified in batch and fed-batch fermentations. On a 5-l fermenter scale, the highest increasement was 68.8% in batch fermentation and the highest ε-PL level was 46.5 g l⁻ ¹ in fed-batch fermentation. The RT-qPCR analysis showed that the transcriptional level of the catalase gene was down-regulated, and the decrease in cell activity was alleviated by the addition of GSH. The results revealed that exogenous antioxidant might maintain the cell vigor by reducing the excess ROS which provided a novel approach to regulate ε-PL synthesis.
