A partial proteome reference map of the wine lactic acid bacterium Oenococcus oeni ATCC BAA-1163.

ABSTRACT: Oenococcus oeni is the main lactic acid bacterium that carries out the malolactic fermentation in virtually all red wines and in some white and sparkling wines. Oenococcus oeni possesses an array of metabolic activities that can modify the taste and aromatic properties of wine. There is, therefore, industrial interest in the proteins involved in these metabolic pathways and related transport systems of this bacterium. In this work, we report the characterization of the O. oeni ATCC BAA-1163 proteome. Total and membrane protein preparations from O. oeni were standardized and analysed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Using tandem mass spectrometry, we identified 224 different spots corresponding to 152 unique proteins, which have been classified by their putative function and subjected to bioinformatics analysis.

Project description:Oenococcus oeni is the lactic acid bacterium (LAB) that most commonly drives malolactic fermentation in wine. Although oenococcal prophages are highly prevalent, their implications on bacterial fitness have remained unexplored and more research is required in this field. An important step toward achieving this goal is the ability to produce isogenic pairs of strains that differ only by the lysogenic presence of a given prophage, allowing further comparisons of different phenotypic traits. A novel protocol for the rapid isolation of lysogens is presented. Bacteria were first picked from the center of turbid plaques produced by temperate oenophages on a sensitive nonlysogenic host. When streaked onto an agar medium containing red grape juice (RGJ), cells segregated into white and red colonies. PCR amplifications with phage-specific primers demonstrated that only lysogens underwent white-red morphotypic switching. The method proved successful for various oenophages irrespective of their genomic content and attachment site used for site-specific recombination in the bacterial chromosome. The color switch was also observed when a sensitive nonlysogenic strain was infected with an exogenously provided lytic phage, suggesting that intracolonial lysis triggers the change. Last, lysogens also produced red colonies on white grape juice agar supplemented with polyphenolic compounds. We posit that spontaneous prophage excision produces cell lysis events in lysogenic colonies growing on RGJ agar, which, in turn, foster interactions between lysed materials and polyphenolic compounds to yield colonies easily distinguishable by their red color. Furthermore, the technique was used successfully with other species of LAB.IMPORTANCE The presence of white and red colonies on red grape juice (RGJ) agar during enumeration of Oenococcus oeni in wine samples is frequently observed by stakeholders in the wine industry. Our study brings an explanation for this intriguing phenomenon and establishes a link between the white-red color switch and the lysogenic state of O. oeni It also provides a simple and inexpensive method to distinguish between lysogenic and nonlysogenic derivatives in O. oeni with a minimum of expended time and effort. Noteworthy, the protocol could be adapted to two other species of LAB, namely, Leuconostoc citreum and Lactobacillus plantarum It could be an effective tool to provide genetic, ecological, and functional insights into lysogeny and aid in improving biotechnological processes involving members of the lactic acid bacterium (LAB) family.
