Characterization of Weissella koreensis SK Isolated from Kimchi Fermented at Low Temperature (around 0 °C) Based on Complete Genome Sequence and Corresponding Phenotype.

Project description:This study identified lactic acid bacteria (LAB) that play a major role in kimchi fermented at low temperature, and investigated the safety and functionality of the LAB via biologic and genomic analyses for its potential use as a starter culture or probiotic. Fifty LAB were isolated from 45 kimchi samples fermented at -1.5~0 °C for 2~3 months. Weissella koreensis strains were determined as the dominant LAB in all kimchi samples. One strain, W. koreensis SK, was selected and its phenotypic and genomic features characterized. The complete genome of W. koreensis SK contains one circular chromosome and plasmid. W. koreensis SK grew well under mesophilic and psychrophilic conditions. W. koreensis SK was found to ferment several carbohydrates and utilize an alternative carbon source, the amino acid arginine, to obtain energy. Supplementation with arginine improved cell growth and resulted in high production of ornithine. The arginine deiminase pathway of W. koreensis SK was encoded in a cluster of four genes (arcA-arcB-arcD-arcC). No virulence traits were identified in the genomic and phenotypic analyses. The results indicate that W. koreensis SK may be a promising starter culture for fermented vegetables or fruits at low temperature as well as a probiotic candidate.

Draft genome sequence of Weissella koreensis KCTC 3621T.

Project description:Weissella koreensis is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped, nonmotile, and facultative anaerobic species belonging to the lactic acid bacteria (LAB). The members of this species have been repeatedly isolated from kimchi (a traditional Korean fermented food) and are known for their beneficial effects on human and animal intestinal microflora through producing various clinically important amino acids such as ?-aminobutyric acid and ornithine. Here we report the genome sequence of the type strain of W. koreensis (KCTC 3621(T)) to provide taxonomic and functional insights into the species.

The influence of red pepper powder on the density of Weissella koreensis during kimchi fermentation.

Project description:Weissella koreensis is a psychrophilic bacterium that is the dominant species found in kimchi and exhibits anti-obesity effects via its production of ornithine. In this study, we mined the genome of W. koreensis KACC15510 to identify species-specific genes that can serve as new targets for the detection and quantification of W. koreensis in kimchi. A specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primer set for the membrane protein-encoding gene of W. koreensis KACC15510 was designed and investigated to quantify its sensitivity and specificity for detecting the bacterium in kimchi. The specificity of the primer set was evaluated using genomic DNA from eight isolates of W. koreensis, 11 different species of Weissella and 13 other reference lactic acid bacterium (LAB) strains. In addition, red pepper powder was observed to strongly influence the density of W. koreensis during kimchi fermentation.
