The yield of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) on high-cell-density fermentation by saccharomyces cerevisiae is mostly affected by the feeding strategy of pre-L-methionine. The mutant strain SAM0801 that could accumulate more SAM was used in this study. Six high-cell-density fermentation experiments in 5 L fermentor were investigated to get the optimal feeding time and amount of L-methionine. The results showed that when 40 g L-methionine was added in the fermentor after 30 h fermentation, a dry cell weight of 100 g/L was achieved. Under this condition, after 58 h fermentation, both the dry cell weight and the yield of SAM reached the maximum, 168 g/L and 14.48 g/L respectively.
