Wheat bran offers health benefits as a baking ingredient, but is detrimental to bread textural quality. Dextran production by microbial fermentation improves sourdough bread volume and freshness, but extensive acid production during fermentation may negate this effect. Enzymatic production of dextran in wheat bran was tested to determine if dextran-containing bran could be used in baking without disrupting bread texture. The Weissella confusa VTT E-90392 dextransucrase gene was sequenced and His-tagged dextransucrase Wc392-rDSR was produced in Lactococcus lactis. Purified enzyme was characterized using 14C-sucrose radioisotope and reducing value-based assays, the former yielding K
m and V
max values of 14.7 mM and 8.2 μmol/(mg∙min), respectively, at the pH optimum of 5.4. The structure and size of in vitro dextran product was similar to dextran produced in vivo. Dextran (8.1% dry weight) was produced in wheat bran in 6 h using Wc392-rDSR. Bran with and without dextran was used in wheat baking at 20% supplementation level. Dextran presence improved bread softness and neutralized bran-induced volume loss, clearly demonstrating the potential of using dextransucrases in bran bioprocessing for use in baking. 相似文献

Weissella confusa and Weissella cibaria isolated from wheat sourdoughs produce, from sucrose, linear dextrans due to a single soluble dextransucrase. In this study, the first complete gene sequence encoding dextransucrase from a W. confusa strain (LBAE C39-2) along with the one from a W. cibaria strain (LBAE K39) were reported. Corresponding gene cloning was achieved using specific primers designed on the basis of the draft genome sequence of these species. Deduced amino acid sequence of W. confusa and W. cibaria dextransucrase revealed common structural features of the glycoside hydrolase family 70. Notably, the regions located in the vicinity of the catalytic triad (D, E, D) are highly conserved. However, comparison analysis also revealed that Weissella dextransucrases form a distinct phylogenetic group within glucansucrases of other lactic acid bacteria. We then cloned the W. confusa C39-2 dextransucrase gene and successfully expressed the mature corresponding enzyme in Escherichia coli. The purified recombinant enzyme rDSRC39-2 catalyzed dextran synthesis from sucrose with a K m of 8.6 mM and a V max of 20 μmol/mg/min. According to 1H and 13C NMR analysis, the polymer is a linear class 1 dextran with 97.2 % α-(1→6) linkages and 2.8 % α-(1→3) branch linkages, similar to the one produced by W. confusa C39-2 strain. The enzyme exhibited optimum catalytic activity for temperatures ranging from 35 to 40 °C and a pH of 5.4 in 20 mM sodium acetate buffer. This novel dextransucrase is responsible for production of dextran with predominant α-(1→6) linkages that could find applications as food hydrocolloids. 相似文献

Dextran is a long chain polymer of d-glucose produced by different bacterial strains including Leuconostoc, Streptococcus and Acetobacter. The bacterial cells from Leuconostoc mesenteroides KIBGE HA1 were immobilized on calcium alginate for dextran production. It was observed that dextran production increases as the temperature increases and after reaching maxima (30 °C) production started to decline. It was also observed that at 50 °C free cells stopped producing dextran, while immobilized cells continued to produce dextran even after 60 °C and still not exhausted. It was found that when 10 g% substrate (sucrose) was used, maximum dextran production was observed. Immobilized cells produced dextran upto 12 days while free cells stopped producing dextran only after 03 days. Molecular mass distribution of dextran produced by immobilized cells is low as compared to free cells. 相似文献

Bacterial deterioration of sugarcane during harvesting and processing is correlated with significant loss of sucrose yield and the accumulation of bacterial polysaccharides. Dextran, a homoglucan produced by Leuconostoc mesenteroides, has been cited as the primary polysaccharide associated with sugarcane deterioration. A culture-based approach was used to isolate extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) producing bacterial strains from milled sugarcane stalks. Ribosomal RNA sequencing analysis grouped 25 isolates into 4 genera. This study identified 2 bacterial genera not previously associated with EPS production or sucrose degradation. All isolates produced polysaccharide when grown in the presence of sucrose. Monosaccharide analysis of purified polymers by Gas Chromatography revealed 17 EPSs consisting solely of glucose (homoglucans), while the remainder contained traces of mannose or fructose. Dextranase treatment of polysaccharides yielded full digestion profiles for only 11 extracts. Incomplete hydrolysis profiles of the remaining polysaccharides suggest the release of longer oligosaccharides which may interfere with sucrose crystal formation. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to ascertain the potency of anti-listerial bacteriocin produced by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from indigenous samples of dahi, dried fish, and salt-fermented cucumber. A total of 231 LAB isolates were obtained from the samples, of which 51 isolates displayed anti-listerial activity. The anti-listerial LAB were identified by PCR as Lactobacillus sp., Pediococcus sp., Enterococcus sp., and Lactococcus sp. PCR also enabled the detection of Class IIa bacteriocin-encoding genes such as enterocin A, pediocin, and plantaricin A in some of the LAB isolates. The culture filtrate from anti-listerial LAB isolates demonstrated bacteriocin-like inhibitory substance (BLIS) against common Gram-positive pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, and Bacillus cereus, and partial characterization of BLIS confirmed the production of bacteriocin by the LAB isolates. Sensitive fluorescence-based assays employing specific probes indicated the comparative potencies of the bacteriocin and clearly revealed the membrane-targeted anti-listerial activity of the purified bacteriocin produced by selected LAB isolates. The food application potential of plantaricin A produced by a native isolate Lactobacillus plantarum CRA52 was evidenced as the bacteriocin suppressed the growth of Listeria monocytogenes Scott A inoculated in paneer samples that were stored at 8?°C for 5?days. 相似文献

Juçara palm tree is considered an important species in the Atlantic forest ecosystem and the exploitation of its fruits is a main sustainable strategy adopted to its maintenance. Among several microorganisms in the juçara fruits, were found lactic acid bacteria (LAB) highly capable of synthesizing exopolysaccharides (EPS). Thus, the EPS synthesized by Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides JF17 was characterized according to its chemical structure, physicochemical properties and antioxidant activity. HPLC analysis showed that the EPS consisted of a homopolysaccharide composed of glucose units, FT-IR spectroscopy revealed a dextran, confirmed by 1H and 13C NMR spectra which showed the composition of the polysaccharide, d-glucose units bound by α-(1→6). The EPS showed high water retention capacity, 507.812 ± 47.471 %, and may be related to the porous structure revealed by SEM images. Thermal analysis indicated that the EPS had excellent thermal stability with degradation temperature of 320.8 °C and melting point at 279.81 °C, with the enthalpy of 106.557 J/g. The EPS also presented sequestration ability on different free radicals tested, indicating high antioxidant activity. The results suggest that L. pseudomesenteroides JF17 might be widely used in the production of dextran which has potential qualities for applications in the food industry. 相似文献

Ninety-two strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from a Malaysian food ingredient, chili bo, stored for up to 25 days at 28°C with no benzoic acid (product A) or with 7,000 mg of benzoic acid kg−1 (product B). The strains were divided into eight groups by traditional phenotypic tests. A total of 43 strains were selected for comparison of their sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) whole-cell protein patterns with a SDS-PAGE database of LAB. Isolates from product A were identified as Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus fermentum, Lactobacillus farciminis, Pediococcus acidilactici, Enterococcus faecalis, and Weissella confusa. Five strains belonging to clusters which could not be allocated to existing species by SDS-PAGE were further identified by 16S rRNA sequence comparison. One strain was distantly related to the Lactobacillus casei/Pediococcus group. Two strains were related to Weissella at the genus or species level. Two other strains did not belong to any previously described 16S rRNA group of LAB and occupied an intermediate position between the L. casei/Pediococcus group and the Weissella group and species of Carnobacterium. The latter two strains belong to the cluster of LAB that predominated in product B. The incidence of new species and subspecies of LAB in chili bo indicate the high probability of isolation of new LAB from certain Southeast Asian foods. None of the isolates exhibited bacteriocin activity against L. plantarum ATCC 14917 and LMG 17682. 相似文献

A total of 102 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from three different coffee farms in Taiwan. These isolates were classified and identified by the restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis and sequencing of 16S ribosomal DNA. Heterofermentative Leuconostoc, and Weissella species were the most common LAB found in two farms located at an approximate altitude of 800 m. Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis was the most common LAB found in the remaining farm was located at an approximate altitude of 1,200 m. It is therefore suggested that the altitude and climate may affect the distribution of LAB. On the basis of phylogenetic analysis, two strains included in the genera Enterococcus were considered as two potential novel species or subspecies. In addition, a total of 34 isolates showed the antifungal activity against Aspergillus flavus. Moreover, seven Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis strains and one Enterococcus faecalis strain were found to have bacteriocin-like inhibitory substance-producing capability. These results suggest that various LAB are associated with fresh coffee cherries in Taiwan. Some of the isolates found in this study showed potential as antifungal agents. 相似文献

The industrial Leuconostoc strain B/110-1-2 producing dextran and dextran derivatives was taxonomically identified by 16S rRNA as L. citreum. Its dextransucrase enzymes were characterized according to their cellular location and reaction specificity. In the presence
of sucrose, the strain B/110-1-2 produced two cell-associated dextransucrases (31.54% of the total glucosyltransferase activity)
with molecular weights of 160 and 240 kDa and a soluble dextransucrase (68.46%) at 160–180 kDa. Two open reading frames (ORF)
coding for L. citreum strain B/110-1-2 dextransucrases were identified. One of them shared a 52% identity with the alternansucrase ASR of L. citreum NRRL B-1355 and with a putative annotated alternansucrase sequence found in the genome of L. citreum KM20. The structural analysis (HPAEC-PAD, HPSEC, and 13C-NMR) of the polymer and oligodextrans produced by the B/110-1-2 dextransucrases suggest this novel glucansucrase has specificity
similar to a dextransucrase but not to an alternansucrase, producing a soluble linear dextran with glucose molecules linked
mainly in α-1,6 and α-1,3 with α-1,4 branches. These results enhance the understanding of this industrially significant strain
and will aid in distinguishing between physiologically similar Leuconostoc spp. strains. 相似文献

The present study aimed to evaluate the probiotic potential of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from Chinese traditional fermented buffalo milk. Out of 22 isolates, 11 were putatively identified as LAB preliminarily. A total of six LAB strains displayed strong adhesion to HT-29 cells and all these strains showed preferable tolerance to artificially simulated gastrointestinal juices. WDS-4, WDS-7, and WDS-18 exhibited excellent antioxidant capacities, including DPPH radical, ABTS+ radical, and superoxide anion scavenging activities. Compared with the other two LAB strains, WDS-7 had a stronger inhibition effect on four pathogens. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequencing and phylogenetic analysis, WDS-7 was identified as Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. indicus and selected to assess the potential and safety of probiotics further. The results revealed that WDS-7 strain had a strong capacity for acid production and good thermal stability. WDS-7 strain also possessed bile salt hydrolase (BSH) activity. Compared to LGG, WDS-7 was a greater biofilm producer on the plastic surface and exhibited a better EPS production ability (1.94 mg/ml as a glucose equivalent). WDS-7 was proved to be sensitive in the majority of tested antibiotics and absence of hemolytic activity. Moreover, no production of biogenic amines and β-glucuronidase was observed in WDS-7. The findings of this work indicated that L. delbrueckii ssp. indicus WDS-7 fulfilled the probiotic criteria in vitro and could be exploited for further evaluation in vivo. 相似文献

Four major dextransucrase (EC 2.4.1.5) preparations from Leuconostoc mesenteroides were studied in relation to their reaction products. The extracellular enzyme II, a highly aggregated form of enzyme I, synthesized the largest amount of dextran per 1 unit of enzyme. Moreover, this dextran emerged at the void volume by Sepharose 6B chromatography. Dextran produced by the enzyme I was composed almost exclusively of water-soluble form having a molecular weight (MW) smaller than that of the product with enzyme II. Although soluble dextran produced by the intracellular enzyme (enzyme III or IV) had a low MW, ratio of insoluble dextran to total dextran was higher than that of the products with extracellular enzyme. Dextran produced by the enzyme II contained a large amount of non-α-l,6-linkages whereas dextran produced by the enzyme I was rich in linear α-l,6-linked structure. The structural analyses of various dextrans showed that each enzyme seemed to be responsible for the synthesis of both α-1,6 and non-α-l,6-linkages. Difference in the amounts and structures of dextrans suggests that the extracellular enzymes may play a major role for the dextran synthesis in vivo. 相似文献

A total of 96 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from African indigenous fermented products and cow’s intestines to
study their inhibitory capability against multi-drug-resistant uropathogens. Escherichia coli accounted for approximately 45% of isolated uropathogens, followed by Staphylococcus spp. (20%). The Gram negative uropathogens were highly resistant to quinolones, co-trimoxazole, teicoplanin and some β-lactams,
while the Staphylococcus spp. showed high resistance to aminoglycosides, β-lactams and macrolides. Twenty-four LAB isolates were selected based on
their antimicrobial activity against two uropathogenic Staphylococcus aureus strains and bacteriocin production. LAB strains showing antimicrobial activity were grouped into smaller groups through amplified
ribosomal DNA restriction analysis (ARDRA). Representative strains were identified as Weissella spp., Enterococcus
faecium, Lactococcus lactis and Lactobacillus brevis through sequencing of 16S rDNA. The Weissella spp. and L. brevis strains demonstrated remarkable inhibitory activity against seven strains of Gram negative uropathogens. Two strains of L. lactis produced a bacteriocin-like inhibitory substance active against Lactobacillus sakei. In this study, an unusual high rate of co-trimoxazole, quinolones and macrolides resistance among uropathogens from south
west Nigeria was discovered. Based on their sensitivity to Weissella spp., there is a potential for using these LAB as a natural approach for the protection against the uropathogens assayed. 相似文献

The Ghanaian cocoa bean heap fermentation process was studied through a multiphasic approach, encompassing both microbiological and metabolite target analyses. A culture-dependent (plating and incubation, followed by repetitive-sequence-based PCR analyses of picked-up colonies) and culture-independent (denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis [DGGE] of 16S rRNA gene amplicons, PCR-DGGE) approach revealed a limited biodiversity and targeted population dynamics of both lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and acetic acid bacteria (AAB) during fermentation. Four main clusters were identified among the LAB isolated: Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus fermentum, Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides, and Enterococcus casseliflavus. Other taxa encompassed, for instance, Weissella. Only four clusters were found among the AAB identified: Acetobacter pasteurianus, Acetobacter syzygii-like bacteria, and two small clusters of Acetobacter tropicalis-like bacteria. Particular strains of L. plantarum, L. fermentum, and A. pasteurianus, originating from the environment, were well adapted to the environmental conditions prevailing during Ghanaian cocoa bean heap fermentation and apparently played a significant role in the cocoa bean fermentation process. Yeasts produced ethanol from sugars, and LAB produced lactic acid, acetic acid, ethanol, and mannitol from sugars and/or citrate. Whereas L. plantarum strains were abundant in the beginning of the fermentation, L. fermentum strains converted fructose into mannitol upon prolonged fermentation. A. pasteurianus grew on ethanol, mannitol, and lactate and converted ethanol into acetic acid. A newly proposed Weissella sp., referred to as “Weissella ghanaensis,” was detected through PCR-DGGE analysis in some of the fermentations and was only occasionally picked up through culture-based isolation. Two new species of Acetobacter were found as well, namely, the species tentatively named “Acetobacter senegalensis” (A. tropicalis-like) and “Acetobacter ghanaensis” (A. syzygii-like). 相似文献

Knowledge of bacteriophage ecology in vegetable fermentations is essential for developing phage control strategies for consistent and high quality of fermented vegetable products. The ecology of phages infecting lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in commercial sauerkraut fermentations was investigated. Brine samples were taken from four commercial sauerkraut fermentation tanks over a 60- or 100-day period in 2000 and 2001. A total of 171 phage isolates, including at least 26 distinct phages, were obtained. In addition, 28 distinct host strains were isolated and identified as LAB by restriction analysis of the intergenic transcribed spacer region and 16S rRNA sequence analysis. These host strains included Leuconostoc, Weissella, and Lactobacillus species. It was found that there were two phage-host systems in the fermentations corresponding to the population shift from heterofermentative to homofermentative LAB between 3 and 7 days after the start of the fermentations. The data suggested that phages may play an important role in the microbial ecology and succession of LAB species in vegetable fermentations. Eight phage isolates, which were independently obtained two or more times, were further characterized. They belonged to the family Myoviridae or Siphoviridae and showed distinct host ranges and DNA fingerprints. Two of the phage isolates were found to be capable of infecting two Lactobacillus species. The results from this study demonstrated for the first time the complex phage ecology present in commercial sauerkraut fermentations, providing new insights into the bioprocess of vegetable fermentations. 相似文献

Aims: To identify lactic acid bacteria (LAB) colonies isolated from sediments of a coastal marsh by the reduction of 2,3,5‐triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) in MRS medium. Methods and Results: Single colonies isolated from sediments of a coastal marsh by enrichment in MRS broth were selected from MRS‐TTC plates and classified according to colony phenotype based on TTC reduction. A total of 37 colonies grouped in seven different phenotypes were identified by analysis of its 16S ribosomal gene sequence. Most isolates belonged to the Firmicutes phylum, mainly to orders Bacillales and Lactobacillales. LAB were represented by 20 isolates, 15 of which belong to the genus Weissella. Conclusions: Enrichment in MRS was highly selective for the isolation of bacteria belonging to phylum Firmicutes. Several different phenotypes were developed by LAB and must be considered during LAB isolation based on TTC reduction. Significance and Impact of the Study: To our knowledge, this is the first study aimed at determining a relationship between colony phenotype from TTC reduction and a partial identification of isolates based on 16S ribosomal gene sequence similarities. Besides, this is the first report of isolation of W. cibaria from environmental samples. 相似文献

The purpose of this work was to analyse the diversity and dynamics of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) throughout the fermentation process in Atole agrio, a traditional maize based food of Mexican origin. Samples of different fermentation times were analysed using culture-dependent and -independent approaches. Identification of LAB isolates revealed the presence of members of the genera Pediococcus, Weissella, Lactobacillus, Leuconostoc and Lactococcus, and the predominance of Pediococcus pentosaceus and Weissella confusa in liquid and solid batches, respectively. High-throughput sequencing (HTS) of the 16S rRNA gene confirmed the predominance of Lactobacillaceae and Leuconostocaceae at the beginning of the process. In liquid fermentation Acetobacteraceae dominate after 4 h as pH decreased. In contrast, Leuconostocaceae dominated the solid fermentation except at 12 h that were overgrown by Acetobacteraceae. Regarding LAB genera, Lactobacillus dominated the liquid fermentation except at 12 h when Weissella, Lactococcus and Streptococcus were the most abundant. In solid fermentation Weissella predominated all through the process. HTS determined that Lactobacillus plantarum and W. confusa dominated in the liquid and solid batches, respectively. Two oligotypes have been identified for L. plantarum and W. confusa populations, differing in a single nucleotide position each. Only one of the oligotypes was detected among the isolates obtained from each species, the biological significance of which remains unclear. 相似文献

Leuconostoc mesenteroides NRRL B-1426 dextransucrase synthesized a high molecular mass dextran (>2 × 106 Da) with ~85.5% α-(1→6) linear and ~14.5% α-(1→3) branched linkages. This high molecular mass dextran containing branched α-(1→3) linkages can be readily hydrolyzed for the production of enzyme-resistant isomalto-oligosaccharides. The acceptor specificity of dextransucrase for the transglycosylation reaction was studied using sixteen different acceptors. Among the sixteen acceptors used, isomaltose was found to be the best, having 89% efficiency followed by gentiobiose (64%), glucose (30%), cellobiose (25%), lactose (22.5%), melibiose (17%), and trehalose (2.3%) with reference to maltose, a known best acceptor. The β-linked disaccharide, gentiobiose, showed significant efficiency for oligosaccharide production that can be used as a potential prebiotic. 相似文献

A total of 41 strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from durum wheat sourdoughs used to produce Cornetto di Matera bread, were identified by SDS-PAGE of whole cell proteins (WCP) and screened for acid production ability, antimicrobial
activity and exopolysaccharide (EPS) production. The isolates were identified as Lactobacillus plantarum (49%), Leuconostoc mesenteroides (17%), Lactobacillus curvatus (15%), Lactobacillus paraplantarum (12%), Weissella cibaria (5%) and Lactobacillus pentosus (2%). Several strains of Lb. plantarum and Leuc. mesenteroides showed a high acid production ability. The antagonistic activity was tested using an agar-spot deferred antagonism assay
against a set of five indicators. The species had different profiles of inhibition. Lb. plantarum had the largest spectrum of inhibition, while no isolates of W. cibaria and Leuc. mesenteroides showed antimicrobial activity. No strains had antimicrobial activity against Bacillus cereus. The inhibitory activity of five strains was confirmed to be sensitive to proteolytic enzymes and thus potentially due to
bacteriocin production. All Leuc. mesenteroides and W. cibaria strains produced EPS from sucrose. Some Lb. plantarum and Lb. paraplantarum strains produced EPS from different sugars in solid media. EPS production in liquid media was different within the species,
with the highest production in liquid media containing glucose and maltose. A defined strain starter culture (W. cibaria DBPZ1006, Lb. plantarum DBPZ1015 and S. cerevisiae MTG10) was selected on the basis of technological properties and tested in model sourdough fermentations. 相似文献

A water-soluble dextran was produced by purified dextransucrase from Leuconostoc mesenteroides NRRL B-640. The dextran was purified by alcohol precipitation. The structure of dextran was determined by FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and 2-dimensional NMR spectroscopic techniques. NMR techniques (1D 1H, 13C and 2D HMQC) were used to fully assign the 1H and 13C spectra. All the spectral data showed that the dextran contains d-glucose residues in a linear chain with consecutive α(1 → 6) linkages. No branching was observed in the dextran structure. The viscosity of dextran solution decreased with the increase in shear rate exhibiting a typical non-Newtonian pseudoplastic behavior. The surface morphology of dried and powdered dextran studied using Scanning electron microscopy revealed the cubical porous structure. 相似文献

Fermentation microorganisms, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeast from 12 samples of tunta production chain were quantified, from the native potatoes used by the process fermentation of potatoes in the river up to the final product. During fermentation, the LAB population steadily increased from 3 to 4 to 8 log CFU/g during the first 8 days in the river and the yeast population increased from 2 to 3 to 3–4 log CFU/g. Overall, 115 LAB strains were isolated using a culture-dependent method. Molecular techniques and 16S rRNA gene sequencing enabled the identification of native species. In LAB isolates, members of the Lactobacillaceae (64%), Leuconostocaceae (9%) and Enterococcaceae (2%) families were identified. The most prevalent LAB species in the tunta production chain was Lactobacillus curvatus, followed by Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Lactobacillus sakei, Lactobacillus brevis and Enterococcus mundtii were also present. Only 13 LAB strains showed anti-listerial activity, and one of them, identified as En. mundtii DSM 4838T [MG031213], produced antimicrobial compounds that were determined to be proteins after treatment with proteolytic enzymes. Based on these results, we suggest that traditional fermented product-derived LAB strains from specific environments could be selected and used for technological application to control pathogenic bacteria and naturally protect food from post-harvest deleterious microbiota. 相似文献
