Surfactin is one of the most widely studied biosurfactants due to its many potential applications in different fields. In the present study,Bacillus velezensisBS‐37, initially identified as a strain ofBacillus subtilis, was used to efficiently produce surfactin with the addition of glycerol, an inexpensive by‐product of biodiesel production. After 36 hr of growth in glycerol medium, the total surfactin concentration reached more than 1,000 mg/L, which was two times higher than that in sucrose medium. Moreover, the addition ofl‐ andd‐Leu to the culture medium had opposite effects on surfactin production by BS‐37. While surfactin production increased significantly to nearly 2,000 mg/L with the addition of 10 mMl‐Leu, it was dramatically reduced to about 250 mg/L with the addition of 10 mMd‐Leu. To systemically elucidate the mechanisms influencing the efficiency of this biosynthesis process, we sequenced the genome of BS‐37 and analyzed changes of the transcriptome in glycerol medium in response tod‐/l‐leucine. The RPKM analysis of the transcriptome of BS‐37 showed that the transcription levels of genes encoding modular surfactin synthase, the glycerol utilization pathway, and branched‐chain amino acid (BCAA) synthesis pathways were all at a relatively high level, which may offered an explanation why this strain can efficiently use glycerol to produce surfactin with a high yield. Neitherl‐Leu nord‐Leu had a significant effect on the expression of genes in these pathways, indicating thatl‐Leu plays an important role as a precursor or substrate involved in surfactin production, whiled‐Leu appears to act as a competitive inhibitor. The results of the present study provide new insights into the synthesis of surfactin and ways of its regulation, and enrich the genomic and transcriptomic resources available for the construction of high‐producing strains.
