Transcriptome analysis reveals the protection mechanism of proanthocyanidins for Saccharomyces cerevisiae during wine fermentation.

ABSTRACT: Grape-derived proanthocyanidins could act as a protector against various environmental stresses for Saccharomyces cerevisiae during wine fermentation, resulting in the increased physiological activity, fermentation efficiency and improved wine quality. In order to explore the possible protection mechanism of proanthocyanidins globally, RNA-seq analysis for wine yeast AWRI R2 cultivated with 0?g/L (group A), 0.1?g/L (group B), 1.0?g/L (group C) proanthocyanidins were applied in this study. Differentially expressed genes were enriched into six metabolic pathways including vitamin B₆, thiamine, amino acids, aminoacyl-tRNA, carbohydrate and steroid based on KEGG enrichment analysis. Four key genes (SNZ2, THI6, THI21 and THI80), participated in the biosynthesis of vitamin B₆ and thiamine, were up-regulated significantly in proanthocyanidins treated yeast cells and the gene expression levels were verified by RT-qPCR. Yeast cells supplemented with proanthocyanidins performed increased intracellular levels of vitamin B₆ and thiamine and higher cell viability compared to the control group. In addition, the composition of intracellular fatty acids showed an obvious alternation in proanthocyanidins-treated yeast cells, in which the UFAs content increased whereas the SFA content decreased. In general, we provided an indirect protection effect of proanthocyanidins on the yeast cells to alleviate environmental stresses during wine fermentation.

Project description:During fermentative growth in natural and industrial environments, Saccharomyces cerevisiae must redistribute the available nitrogen from multiple exogenous sources to amino acids in order to suitably fulfill anabolic requirements. To exhaustively explore the management of this complex resource, we developed an advanced strategy based on the reconciliation of data from a set of stable isotope tracer experiments with labeled nitrogen sources. Thus, quantifying the partitioning of the N compounds through the metabolism network during fermentation, we demonstrated that, contrary to the generally accepted view, only a limited fraction of most of the consumed amino acids is directly incorporated into proteins. Moreover, substantial catabolism of these molecules allows for efficient redistribution of nitrogen, supporting the operative de novo synthesis of proteinogenic amino acids. In contrast, catabolism of consumed amino acids plays a minor role in the formation of volatile compounds. Another important feature is that the ?-keto acid precursors required for the de novo syntheses originate mainly from the catabolism of sugars, with a limited contribution from the anabolism of consumed amino acids. This work provides a comprehensive view of the intracellular fate of consumed nitrogen sources and the metabolic origin of proteinogenic amino acids, highlighting a strategy of distribution of metabolic fluxes implemented by yeast as a means of adapting to environments with changing and scarce nitrogen resources.IMPORTANCE A current challenge for the wine industry, in view of the extensive competition in the worldwide market, is to meet consumer expectations regarding the sensory profile of the product while ensuring an efficient fermentation process. Understanding the intracellular fate of the nitrogen sources available in grape juice is essential to the achievement of these objectives, since nitrogen utilization affects both the fermentative activity of yeasts and the formation of flavor compounds. However, little is known about how the metabolism operates when nitrogen is provided as a composite mixture, as in grape must. Here we quantitatively describe the distribution through the yeast metabolic network of the N moieties and C backbones of these nitrogen sources. Knowledge about the management of a complex resource, which is devoted to improvement of the use of the scarce N nutrient for growth, will be useful for better control of the fermentation process and the sensory quality of wines.

Project description:The application of starter is a common practice to accelerate and steer the pomegranate wine fermentation process. However, the use of starter needs a better understanding of the effect of the interaction between the starter and native microorganisms during alcoholic fermentation. In this study, high-throughput sequencing combined with metabolite analysis was applied to analyze the effect of commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae inoculation on the native fungal community interaction and metabolism during pomegranate wine fermentation. Results showed that there were diverse native fungi in pomegranate juice, including Hanseniaspora uvarum, Hanseniaspora valbyensis, S. cerevisiae, Pichia terricola, and Candida diversa Based on ecological network analysis, we found that S. cerevisiae inoculation transformed the negative correlations into positive correlations among the native fungal communities and decreased the Granger causalities between native yeasts and volatile organic compounds. This might lead to decreased contents of isobutanol, isoamylol, octanoic acid, decanoic acid, ethyl laurate, ethyl acetate, ethyl hexadecanoate, phenethyl acetate, and 2-phenylethanol during fermentation. This study combined correlation and causality analysis to gain a more integrated understanding of microbial interaction and the fermentation process. It provided a new strategy to predict certain behaviors between inoculated and selected microorganisms and those coming directly from the fruit.IMPORTANCE Microbial interactions play an important role in flavor metabolism during traditional food and beverage fermentation. However, we understand little about how selected starters influence interactions among native microorganisms. In this study, we found that S. cerevisiae inoculation changed the interactions and metabolisms of native fungal communities during pomegranate wine fermentation. This study not only suggests that starter inoculation should take into account the positive features of starters but also characterizes the microbial interactions established among the starters and the native communities. It may be helpful to select appropriate starter cultures for winemakers to design different styles of wine.
