Biological Processes Highlighted in Saccharomyces cerevisiae during the Sparkling Wines Elaboration.

ABSTRACT: Sparkling wines elaboration has been studied by several research groups, but this is the first report on analysis of biological processes according to the Gene Ontology terms (GO terms) and related to proteins expressed by yeast cells during the second fermentation of sparkling wines. This work provides a comprehensive study of the most relevant biological processes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae P29, a sparkling wine strain, during the second fermentation under two conditions (without and with endogenous CO2 overpressure) in the middle and the end of second fermentation. Consequently, a proteomic analysis with the OFFGEL fractionator and protein identification with LTQ Orbitrap XL coupled to HPLC were performed. The classification of biological processes was carried out using the tools provided by the Saccharomyces Genome Database. Results indicate that a greater number of biological processes were identified under condition without CO2 overpressure and in the middle of the fermentation versus the end of the second fermentation. The biological processes highlighted under condition without CO2 overpressure in the middle of the fermentation were involved in the carbohydrate and lipid metabolic processes and catabolic and biosynthetic processes. However, under CO2 overpressure, specific protein expression in response to stress, transport, translation, and chromosome organization and specific processes were not found. At the end of fermentation, there were higher specific processes under condition without CO2 overpressure; most were related to cell division, growth, biosynthetic process, and gene transcription resulting in increased cell viability in this condition. Under CO2 overpressure condition, the most representative processes were related to translation as tRNA metabolic process, chromosome organization, mRNA processing, ribosome biogenesis, and ribonucleoprotein complex assembly, probably in response to the stress caused by the hard fermentation conditions. Therefore, a broader knowledge of the adaptation of the yeast, and its behavior under typical conditions to produce sparkling wine, might improve and favor the wine industry and the selection of yeast for obtaining a high-quality wine.

Project description:Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolism produces ethanol and other compounds during the fermentation of grape must into wine. Thousands of genes change expression over the course of a wine fermentation, allowing S. cerevisiae to adapt to and dominate the fermentation environment. Investigations into these gene expression patterns previously revealed genes that underlie cellular adaptation to the grape must and wine environments, involving metabolic specialization and ethanol tolerance. However, the majority of studies detailing gene expression patterns have occurred in controlled environments that may not recapitulate the biological and chemical complexity of fermentations performed at production scale. Here, an analysis of the S. cerevisiae RC212 gene expression program is presented, drawing from 40 pilot-scale fermentations (150 liters) using Pinot noir grapes from 10 California vineyards across two vintages. A core gene expression program was observed across all fermentations irrespective of vintage, similar to that of laboratory fermentations, in addition to novel gene expression patterns likely related to the presence of non-Saccharomyces microorganisms and oxygen availability during fermentation. These gene expression patterns, both common and diverse, provide insight into Saccharomyces cerevisiae biology critical to fermentation outcomes under industry-relevant conditions.IMPORTANCE This study characterized Saccharomyces cerevisiae RC212 gene expression during Pinot noir fermentation at pilot scale (150 liters) using industry-relevant conditions. The reported gene expression patterns of RC212 are generally similar to those observed under laboratory fermentation conditions but also contain gene expression signatures related to yeast-environment interactions found in a production setting (e.g., the presence of non-Saccharomyces microorganisms). Key genes and pathways highlighted by this work remain undercharacterized, indicating the need for further research to understand the roles of these genes and their impact on industrial wine fermentation outcomes.
