Viable Saccharomyces cerevisiae suspended in medium containing growth-inhibiting concentrations of ethanol produce a metabolite that relieves growth inhibition. This autoconditioning of the medium by yeasts is due to the formation of small amounts (0.01%, vol/vol) of acetaldehyde. The effect is duplicated precisely in fresh medium by the addition of acetaldehyde. Acetaldehyde does not increase the yield of or accelerate ethanol production by the organism. Ethanol-induced modifications of membrane order in the plasma membranes, as measured by steady-state fluorescence anisotropy of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene, were not resolved by exogenously added acetaldehyde. 相似文献

A novel ethanol-hypersensitive mutant, geko1 (gek1), was isolated from Arabidopsis thaliana. The gek1 mutant displays an enhanced sensitivity (10-100 times greater than the wild type) to ethanol in growth medium, while it grows normally in the absence of ethanol, and responds normally to other alcohols and to environmental stresses such as heat shock and high salinity. The ethanol-hypersensitive phenotype of gek1 requires alcohol dehydrogenase activity, indicating that gek1 is sensitive not to ethanol itself but to the metabolites of ethanol. Consistent with this, gek1 shows enhanced sensitivity to acetaldehyde in the medium. The endogenous acetaldehyde levels were not different between gek1-2 and wild-type seedlings treated with ethanol. These results indicate that the ethanol hypersensitivity of gek1 is due to an enhanced sensitivity to acetaldehyde toxicity, instead of abnormally elevated accumulation of toxic acetaldehyde, which has been thought to be the major cause of ethanol toxicity in mammal cells. 相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae has evolved a highly efficient strategy for energy generation which maximizes ATP energy production from sugar. This adaptation enables efficient energy generation under anaerobic conditions and limits competition from other microorganisms by producing toxic metabolites, such as ethanol and CO(2). Yeast fermentative and flavor capacity forms the biotechnological basis of a wide range of alcohol-containing beverages. Largely as a result of consumer demand for improved flavor, the alcohol content of some beverages like wine has increased. However, a global trend has recently emerged toward lowering the ethanol content of alcoholic beverages. One option for decreasing ethanol concentration is to use yeast strains able to divert some carbon away from ethanol production. In the case of wine, we have generated and evaluated a large number of gene modifications that were predicted, or known, to impact ethanol formation. Using the same yeast genetic background, 41 modifications were assessed. Enhancing glycerol production by increasing expression of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene, GPD1, was the most efficient strategy to lower ethanol concentration. However, additional modifications were needed to avoid negatively affecting wine quality. Two strains carrying several stable, chromosomally integrated modifications showed significantly lower ethanol production in fermenting grape juice. Strain AWRI2531 was able to decrease ethanol concentrations from 15.6% (vol/vol) to 13.2% (vol/vol), whereas AWRI2532 lowered ethanol content from 15.6% (vol/vol) to 12% (vol/vol) in both Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon juices. Both strains, however, produced high concentrations of acetaldehyde and acetoin, which negatively affect wine flavor. Further modifications of these strains allowed reduction of these metabolites. 相似文献

The effect of pargyline on the uptake of acetaldehyde (in the presence of pyrazole) by isolated rat liver cells was studied after incubating the liver cells for 0, 10, 30, 45, and 60 min with 0.40, 1.30, and 2.6 mm pargyline. Without any incubation period, pargyline had no effect on acetaldehyde uptake. With increasing time of incubation, there was a progressive increase in the extent of inhibition of acetaldehyde uptake by pargyline. This suggests the possibility that pargyline is metabolized to the effective inhibitor or the incubation period allows pargyline to reach its site(s) of action. Pargyline was also a more effective inhibitor of the uptake of lower concentrations of acetaldehyde, e.g., 0.167 mm, than of higher concentrations (1.0 mm) of acetaldehyde, especially after short incubation periods or when pyrazole was omitted from the reaction medium. After a 20- to 30-min incubation period, pargyline inhibited the control rate of ethanol oxidation by the liver cells, as well as the accelerated rate of ethanol oxidation found in the presence of pyruvate or an uncoupling agent. Pargyline had no effect on hepatic oxygen consumption. During ethanol oxidation, a time-dependent release of acetaldehyde into the medium was observed. Pyruvate, by increasing the rate of ethanol oxidation, increased the output of acetaldehyde five- to tenfold. Pargyline increased the output of acetaldehyde two- to threefold, despite decreasing the rate of ethanol metabolism by the liver cells. These data indicate that pargyline inhibits the low Km aldehyde dehydrogenase in intact rat liver cells and that this enzyme plays the major role in oxidizing the acetaldehyde which arises during the metabolism of ethanol. Although most of the acetaldehyde generated during the oxidation of ethanol is removed by the liver cells in an effective manner, changes in the activity of aldehyde dehydrogenase or the rate of acetaldehyde generation significantly alter the hepatic output of acetaldehyde. 相似文献

Summary Acetaldehyde at above about 0.3 g/l inhibited yeast growth, suggesting that it may contribute to product inhibition in alcohol fermentations when present at high concentrations intracellularly. The toxic effects of acetaldehyde and ethanol were not mutually reinforcing, acetaldehyde appearing to alleviate slightly the effects of ethanol. In support of this, low concentrations of acetaldehyde greatly reduced the lag phase in ethanol-containing medium and increased the specific growth rate. 相似文献

Effect of ethanol and acetaldehyde on the release of arginine-vasopressin and oxytocin from the isolated hypothalamo-hypophyseal system of rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Effects of ethanol and acetaldehyde on the release of arginine-vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OXT) were examined using a superfusion system of the isolated hypothalamo-hypophyseal complex of rats. The release of both hormones was significantly suppressed by exposing the tissue samples to Eagle MEM medium containing 1.75 and 2.5% ethanol (the maximal suppression: AVP, 30% and 70%; OXT, 30% and 70%, respectively). However, perfusion with medium containing 3.75 and 5.0% ethanol enhanced the release of OXT during exposure to ethanol (the maximal increase, 1,000%) and the release of AVP was increased markedly just after exposure to ethanol was stopped (the maximal increase, 800%). Perfusion with medium containing 50, 100 and 250 microM acetaldehyde did not affect the release. 相似文献

Mutants of the bacteria Acinetobacter calcoaceticus 34 and Acinetobacter sp. 172 as well as of the yeast Candida requinyii 316 resistant to acetaldehyde grow better in a medium with ethanol than their parent cultures. In their specific growth rate and alcohol dehydrogenase activity, 28.7-66.7% of such mutants are superior to any clone isolated in a non-selective medium. A medium containing ethanol and acetaldehyde (0.5 to 1.0% by volume) is proposed to select and isolate highly productive mutants. 相似文献

Ethanol production in plant tissues deprived of oxygen is a well known process. Nevertheless, little information is available on the toxic effects of ethanol on plant cells and tissues, or on the possible role of acetaldehyde, the first oxidative product of ethanol, in inducing toxic effects in plants. Data on the metabolism of ethanol in suspension cultured cells of carrot ( Daucus carola L. cv. S. Valery, cell line T22), a system highly sensitive to the presence of ethanol in the culture medium, indicate that carrot cells oxidize only small amounts of ethanol to CO2 . Instead, they convert ethanol mainly to acetaldehyde, which accumulates in the culture medium. This suggests a possible role of acetaldehyde in causing ethanol-induced injury to carrot cells. 相似文献

Carrot (Daucus carota L.) cell cultures show high sensitivity to ethanol since both unorganized cell growth and somatic embryogenesis are strongly inhibited by ethanol at relatively low concentrations (10-20 millimolar). The role of acetaldehyde on ethanol-induced injuries to suspension cultured carrot cells was evaluated. When ethanol oxidation to acetaldehyde is prevented by adding an alcohol-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.1) inhibitor (4-methylpyrazole) to the culture medium, no ethanol toxicity was observed, even if ethanol was present at relatively high concentrations (40-80 millimolar). Data are also presented on the effects of exogenously added acetaldehyde on both carrot cell growth and somatic embryogenesis. We conclude that the observed toxic effects of ethanol cannot be ascribed to ethanol per se but to acetaldehyde. 相似文献

Transport and intracellular accumulation of acetaldehyde in saccharomyces cerevisiae 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The rate of acetaldehyde efflux from yeast cells and its intracellular concentration were studied in the light of recent suggestions that acetaldehyde inhibition may be an important factor in yeast ethanol fermentations. When the medium surrounding cells containing ethanol and acetaldehyde was suddenly diluted, the rate of efflux of acetaldehyde was slow relative to the rate of ethanol efflux, suggesting that acetaldehyde, unlike ethanol, may accumulate intracellularly. Intracellular acetaldehyde concentrations were measured during high cell density fermentations, using direct injection gas chromatography to avoid the need to concentrate or disrupt the cells. Intracellular acetaldehyde concentrations substantially exceeded the extracellular concentrations throughout fermentation and were generally much higher than the acetaldehyde concentrations normally recorded in the culture broth in ethanol fermentations. The technique used was sensitive to the time taken to cool and freeze the samples. Measured intracellular acetaldehyde concentrations fell rapidly as the time taken to freeze the suspensions was extended beyond 2 s. The results add weight to recent claims that acetaldehyde toxicity is responsible for some of the effects previously ascribed to ethanol in alcohol fermentations, especially Zymomonas fermentations. Further work is required to confirm the importance of acetaldehyde toxicity under other culture conditions. (c) 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

There is a strong demand from the wine industry for methodologies to reduce the alcohol content of wine without compromising wine''s sensory characteristics. We assessed the potential of adaptive laboratory evolution strategies under hyperosmotic stress for generation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae wine yeast strains with enhanced glycerol and reduced ethanol yields. Experimental evolution on KCl resulted, after 200 generations, in strains that had higher glycerol and lower ethanol production than the ancestral strain. This major metabolic shift was accompanied by reduced fermentative capacities, suggesting a trade-off between high glycerol production and fermentation rate. Several evolved strains retaining good fermentation performance were selected. These strains produced more succinate and 2,3-butanediol than the ancestral strain and did not accumulate undesirable organoleptic compounds, such as acetate, acetaldehyde, or acetoin. They survived better under osmotic stress and glucose starvation conditions than the ancestral strain, suggesting that the forces that drove the redirection of carbon fluxes involved a combination of osmotic and salt stresses and carbon limitation. To further decrease the ethanol yield, a breeding strategy was used, generating intrastrain hybrids that produced more glycerol than the evolved strain. Pilot-scale fermentation on Syrah using evolved and hybrid strains produced wine with 0.6% (vol/vol) and 1.3% (vol/vol) less ethanol, more glycerol and 2,3-butanediol, and less acetate than the ancestral strain. This work demonstrates that the combination of adaptive evolution and breeding is a valuable alternative to rational design for remodeling the yeast metabolic network. 相似文献

Summary Extracellular levels of pyruvate and acetate (HPLC method), acetaldehyde and ethanol (PTFE gas sensor method) are determined. Accurate measurements of these substances allow to definite more precisely the changes during aerobic growth of baker's yeast on a glucose medium (23 g/l). Unexpected variations in the level of extracellular acetaldehyde are noticed. In the oxydative mode, a successsive uptake of pyruvate, acetate, acetaldehyde and ethanol is pointed out. A model based onintracellular architecture is proposed to represent these experimental results. 相似文献

Escherichia coli K-12 strain MG1655 was engineered to coproduce acetaldehyde and hydrogen during glucose fermentation by the use of exogenous acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) reductase (for the conversion of acetyl-CoA to acetaldehyde) and the native formate hydrogen lyase. A putative acetaldehyde dehydrogenase/acetyl-CoA reductase from Salmonella enterica (SeEutE) was cloned, produced at high levels, and purified by nickel affinity chromatography. In vitro assays showed that this enzyme had both acetaldehyde dehydrogenase activity (68.07 ± 1.63 μmol min(-1) mg(-1)) and the desired acetyl-CoA reductase activity (49.23 ± 2.88 μmol min(-1) mg(-1)). The eutE gene was engineered into an E. coli mutant lacking native glucose fermentation pathways (ΔadhE, ΔackA-pta, ΔldhA, and ΔfrdC). The engineered strain (ZH88) produced 4.91 ± 0.29 mM acetaldehyde while consuming 11.05 mM glucose but also produced 6.44 ± 0.26 mM ethanol. Studies showed that ethanol was produced by an unknown alcohol dehydrogenase(s) that converted the acetaldehyde produced by SeEutE to ethanol. Allyl alcohol was used to select for mutants with reduced alcohol dehydrogenase activity. Three allyl alcohol-resistant mutants were isolated; all produced more acetaldehyde and less ethanol than ZH88. It was also found that modifying the growth medium by adding 1 g of yeast extract/liter and lowering the pH to 6.0 further increased the coproduction of acetaldehyde and hydrogen. Under optimal conditions, strain ZH136 converted glucose to acetaldehyde and hydrogen in a 1:1 ratio with a specific acetaldehyde production rate of 0.68 ± 0.20 g h(-1) g(-1) dry cell weight and at 86% of the maximum theoretical yield. This specific production rate is the highest reported thus far and is promising for industrial application. The possibility of a more efficient "no-distill" ethanol fermentation procedure based on the coproduction of acetaldehyde and hydrogen is discussed. 相似文献

The mechanism of acetaldehyde detoxification in Drosophila melanogaster adults has been studied by comparing physiological in vitro and in vivo data. ADH+ and ADH− flies, both lacking aldehyde dehydrogenase activity from ADH (ALDHADH, ALDH (ALDH) or both enzymes were exposed to acetaldehyde or ethanol, and the toxicity and internal accumulation of both compounds were determined. Acetaldehyde was extremely lethal for flies whose ALDH activity had been inhibited by cyanamide, though acetaldehyde was effectively detoxified by flies whose ALDHADH activity had been inhibited by acetone. After exposure to acetaldehyde, both acetaldehyde and ethanol rapidly accumulated in flies lacking ALDH activity, but not in flies lacking ALDHADH activity. However, ethanol but not acetaldehyde quickly accumulated in flies lacking ALDH activity after exposure to ethanol. Our results provide in vivo evidence that, as opposed to larvae, in D. melanogaster adults acetaldehyde is mainly oxidized into acetate by means of ALDH enzymes. However, the reducing activity of the ADH enzyme, which transforms acetaldehyde into ethanol, also plays an essential role in the detoxification of acetaldehyde. Differences in ALDH activity might be important to explain the differences in ethanol tolerance found in natural populations. 相似文献

The leaves of trees emit significant amounts of acetaldehyde which is synthesized there by the oxidation of ethanol. In the present study, we examined plant internal and environmental factors controlling the emission of acetaldehyde by the leaves of young poplar ( Populus tremula × P. alba ) trees. The enzymes possibly involved in the oxidation of ethanol in the leaves of trees are catalase (CAT; EC 1.11.1.6) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH; EC 1.1.1.1), both expressed constitutively in the leaves of poplars. Inhibition of ADH in excised leaves caused a significant decrease of acetaldehyde emission accompanied by an increased ethanol emission. Since inhibition of CAT by aminotriazole did not affect acetaldehyde and ethanol emission, it is concluded that the oxidation of ethanol in the leaves is mediated by ADH rather than by CAT. Further studies indicated that aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH; EC 1.2.1.5) seems to be responsible for the oxidation of acetaldehyde. The present results demonstrate that acetaldehyde emission is clearly dependent on its production in the leaves as controlled by the delivery of ethanol to the leaves via the transpiration stream. Environmental factors that control stomatal conductance seem to be of less importance for acetaldehyde emission by the leaves. 相似文献

Polyclonal antibodies able to recognize protein-acetaldehyde conjugates were produced and characterized. The antibodies react with sodium cyanoborohydride-reduced Schiff's bases between acetaldehyde and a protein, independently of the nature of the macromolecule binding the acetaldehyde moiety. Only conjugates between acetaldehyde or propionaldehyde and a protein are recognized; conjugates obtained with other aldehydes are not reactive. Results concerning the formation of acetaldehyde adducts with carrot (Daucus carota L.) proteins are presented as well as the presence of such conjugates in ethanol-treated carrot cell cultures, a system highly sensitive to the presence of ethanol in the culture medium. 相似文献

Effects of ethanol, tri-chloroethanol and acetaldehyde on synaptic transmission were studied in the VIIIth sympathetic ganglion of bullfrog. Acetaldehyde and trichloroethanol were, respectively, 276 and 382 times more potent than ethanol in blocking synaptic transmission. Transmission block by ethanol and trichloroethanol was reversible, but not that by acetaldehyde. The concentrations of ethanol, trichloroethanol and acetaldehyde that blocked synaptic transmission did not affect preganglionic axonal conduction. 相似文献

The effects of temperature, solvents, and cultural conditions on the fermentative physiology of an ethanol-tolerant (56 g/liter at 60°C) and parent strain of Clostridium thermohydrosulfuricum were compared. An ethanol-tolerant mutant was selected by successive transfer of the parent strain into media with progressively higher ethanol concentrations. Physiological differences noted in the mutant included enhanced growth, tolerance to various solvents, and alterations in the substrate range and the fermentation end product ratio. Ethanol tolerance was temperature dependent in the mutant but not in the parent strain. The mutant grew with ethanol concentrations up to 8.0% (wt/vol) at 45°C, but only up to 3.3% (wt/vol) at 68°C. Low ethanol concentration (0.2 to 1.6% [wt/vol]) progressively inhibited the parent strain to where glucose was not fermented at 2.0% (wt/vol) ethanol. Both strains grew and produced alcohols on glucose complex medium at 60°C in the presence of either 5% methanol or acetone, and these solvents when added at low concentration stimulated fermentative metabolism. The mutant produced ethanol at high concentrations and displayed an ethanol/glucose ratio (mole/mole) of 1.0 in media where initial ethanol concentrations were ≤4.0% (wt/vol), whereas when ethanol concentration was changed from 0.1% to 1.6% (wt/vol), the ethanol/glucose ratio for the parent strain changed from 1.6 to 0.6. These data indicate that C. thermohydrosulfuricum strains are tolerant of solvents and that low ethanol tolerance is not a result of disruption of membrane fluidity or glycolytic enzyme activity. 相似文献

The lag phase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae subjected to a step increase in temperature or ethanol concentration was reduced by as much as 60% when acetaldehyde was added to the medium at concentrations less than 0.1 g/L. Maximum specific growth rates were also substantially increased. Even greater proportional reductions in lag time due to acetaldehyde addition were observed for ethanol-shocked cultures of Zymomonas mobilis. Acetaldehyde had no effect on S. cerevisiae cultures started from stationary phase inocula in the absence of environmental shock and its lag-reducing effects were greater in complex medium than in a defined synthetic medium. Acetaldehyde reacted strongly with the ingredients of complex culture media. It is proposed that the effect of added acetaldehyde may be to compensate for the inability of cells to maintain transmembrane acetaldehyde gradients following an environmental shock.
