Molecular and physiological analyses were used to study the evolution of the yeast population, from alcoholic fermentation to biological aging in the process of “fino” sherry wine making. The four races of “flor” Saccharomyces cerevisiae (beticus, cheresiensis, montuliensis, and rouxii) exhibited identical restriction patterns for the region spanning the internal transcribed spacers 1 and 2 (ITS-1 and ITS-2) and the 5.8S rRNA gene, but this pattern was different, from those exhibited by non-flor S. cerevisiae strains. This flor-specific pattern was detected only after wines were fortified, never during alcoholic fermentation, and all the strains isolated from the velum exhibited the typical flor yeast pattern. By restriction fragment length polymorphism of mitochondrial DNA and karyotyping, we showed that (i) the native strain is better adapted to fermentation conditions than commercial strains; (ii) two different populations of S. cerevisiae strains are involved in the process of elaboration, of fino sherry wine, one of which is responsible for must fermentation and the other, for wine aging; and (iii) one strain was dominant in the flor population integrating the velum from sherry wines produced in González Byass wineries, although other authors have described a succession of races of flor S. cerevisiae during wine aging. Analyzing all these results together, we conclude that yeast population dynamics during biological aging is a complex phenomenon and differences between yeast populations from different wineries can be observed.  相似文献

Flor formation and flor endurance have been related to ability by Saccharomyces cerevisiae flor yeasts to resist hostile conditions such as oxidative stress and the presence of acetaldehyde and ethanol. Ethanol and acetaldehyde toxicity give rise to formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and loss of cell viability. Superoxide dismutases Sod1p and Sod2p and other proteins such as Hsp12p are involved in oxidative stress tolerance. In this study, genes SOD1, SOD2, and HSP12 were overexpressed in flor yeast strains FJF206, FJF414 and B16. In the SOD1 and SOD2 transformant strains superoxide dismutases encoded by genes SOD1 and SOD2 increased their specific activity considerably as a direct result of overexpression of genes SOD1 and SOD2, indirectly, catalase, glutathione reductase, and glutathione peroxidase activities increased too. The HSP12 transformant strains showed higher levels of glutathione peroxidase and reductase activities. These transformant strains showed an increase in intracellular glutathione content, a reduction in peroxidized lipid concentration, and higher resistance to oxidative stress conditions. As a result, flor formation by these strains took place more rapidly than by their parental strains, velum being thicker and with higher percentages of viable cells. In addition, a slight decrease in ethanol and glycerol concentrations, and an increase in acetaldehyde were detected in wines matured under velum formed by transformant strains, as compared to their parental strains. In the industry, velum formed by transformant strains with increased viability may result in acceleration of both metabolism and wine aging, thus reducing time needed for wine maturation.  相似文献

Fifty-four Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains were isolated from Jura “Vin Jaune” velum and characterized by conventional physiological and molecular tests including ITS RFLP and sequence analysis, karyotyping and inter delta typing. ITS RFLP and sequence revealed a specific group of related strains different from the specific profile of Sherry flor yeast caused by a 24 bp deletion in the ITS1 region described by Esteve-Zarzoso et al. (Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek 85:151–158, 2004). Interdelta typing, the most discriminative method, revealed a high diversity of Jura flor yeast strains and gathered strains in clusters unequally shared between the northern and southern part of the Jura vineyard. The assessment of phenotypic diversity among the isolated strains was investigated for three wine metabolites (ethanal, acetic acid, and sotolon) from micro scale velum tests. Except at an early stage of ageing, the production of these metabolites was not correlated to the five genetic groups obtained by interdelta typing, but correlated to the cellar where strains had been isolated. The different strains isolated in a cellar produced mostly one type of velum (thin or thick, grey or white); but thin and grey velums, recognized as responsible for high quality wines, were obtained more frequently for one of the five groups of delta genotypes.  相似文献

Sixteen flor yeast strains from the Magarach Collection of the Microorganisms for Winemaking (Yalta, Crimea), which are used for production of sherry, were analyzed for morphophysiological, cultural, and biochemical properties. Long-term storage did not affect their viability or the preservation of major properties, such as their flor- and aldehyde-forming abilities, and the ability to produce wines with typical sherry properties. Significant variation in the strains was observed mainly in the aldehyde-forming and flor-forming abilities and flor properties. Interdelta typing was shown to be the most informative technique to study the genetic diversity of flor yeast strains. Certain correlations between genetic polymorphisms and the enological properties of the strains were observed. The presence of a 24-bp long deletion in the ITS1 spacer of the ribosomal gene cluster, a typical feature of Spanish flor yeast strains, is correlated with a high level of production of aldehydes and acetales, efficient flor formation, and the ability to produce high quality sherry. The presence of a specific deletion in the promoter of the FLO11 gene appeared to be less informative, since the aldehyde and acetal production and flor formation abilities of such strains were variable. The studies of intraspecies genetic polymorphism by various molecular markers have revealed a high degree of phylogenetic closeness of some yeast flor strains from different geographic regions.  相似文献

The traditional biological process by which sherry wines are aged can be accelerated by using submerged Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. capensis (G1) strain cultures previously grown in glycerol. The used controlled shaking conditions raise the acetaldehyde, acetoin, and meso 2,3-butanediol contents in the wine, and increases the consumption of gluconic acid by flor yeast relative to traditional biological aging under flor yeast velum.  相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae “flor” yeasts have the ability to form a buoyant biofilm at the air-liquid interface of wine. The formation of biofilm, also called velum, depends on FLO11 gene length and expression. FLO11 encodes a cell wall mucin-like glycoprotein with a highly O-glycosylated central domain and an N-terminal domain that mediates homotypic adhesion between cells. In the present study, we tested previously known antimicrobial peptides with different mechanisms of antimicrobial action for their effect on the viability and ability to form biofilm of S. cerevisiae flor strains. We found that PAF26, a synthetic tryptophan-rich cationic hexapeptide that belongs to the class of antimicrobial peptides with cell-penetrating properties, but not other antimicrobial peptides, enhanced biofilm formation without affecting cell viability in ethanol-rich medium. The PAF26 biofilm enhancement required a functional FLO11 but was not accompanied by increased FLO11 expression. Moreover, fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry analyses showed that the PAF26 peptide binds flor yeast cells and that a flo11 gene knockout mutant lost the ability to bind PAF26 but not P113, a different cell-penetrating antifungal peptide, demonstrating that the FLO11 gene is selectively involved in the interaction of PAF26 with cells. Taken together, our data suggest that the cationic and hydrophobic PAF26 hexapeptide interacts with the hydrophobic and negatively charged cell wall, favoring Flo11p-mediated cell-to-cell adhesion and thus increasing biofilm biomass formation. The results are consistent with previous data that point to glycosylated mucin-like proteins at the fungal cell wall as potential interacting partners for antifungal peptides.  相似文献

Several indigenous Saccharomyces strains from musts were isolated in the Jerez de la Frontera region, at the end of spontaneous fermentation, in order to select the most suitable autochthonous yeast starter, during the 2007 vintage. Five strains were chosen for their oenological abilities and fermentative kinetics to elaborate a Sherry base wine. The selected autochthonous strains were characterized by molecular methods: electrophoretic karyotype and random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR) and by physiological parameters: fermentative power, ethanol production, sugar consumption, acidity and volatile compound production, sensory quality, killer phenotype, desiccation, and sulphur dioxide tolerance. Laboratory- and pilot-scale fermentations were conducted with those autochthonous strains. One of them, named J4, was finally selected over all others for industrial fermentations. The J4 strain, which possesses exceptional fermentative properties and oenological qualities, prevails in industrial fermentations, and becomes the principal biological agent responsible for winemaking. Sherry base wine, industrially manufactured by means of the J4 strain, was analyzed, yielding, together with its sensory qualities, final average values of 0.9 g/l sugar content, 13.4 % (v/v) ethanol content and 0.26 g/l volatile acidity content; apart from a high acetaldehyde production, responsible for the distinctive aroma of “Fino”. This base wine was selected for “Fino” Sherry elaboration and so it was fortified; it is at present being subjected to biological aging by the so-called “flor” yeasts. The “flor” velum formed so far is very high quality. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study covering from laboratory to industrial scale of characterization and selection of autochthonous starter intended for alcoholic fermentation in Sherry base wines. Since the 2010 vintage, the indigenous J4 strain is employed to industrially manufacture a homogeneous, exceptional Sherry base wine for “Fino” Sherry production.  相似文献

For the production of wine, the most important industrially used yeast species is Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Years of experience have shown that wine quality and property are significantly affected by the employed strain conducting the fermentation. Consequently, the ability of a strain level differentiation became an important requirement of modern winemaking. In our study, we showed that the differentiation by time-consuming and laborious biochemical and DNA-based methods to enable a constant beverage quality and characteristics can be replaced by matrix-assisted-laser-desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS), accompanied by the additional benefit of an application prediction. Mass fingerprints of 33 Saccharomyces strains, which are commonly used for varying wine fermentations, were generated by MALDI-TOF MS upon optimized sample preparation and instrument settings and analyzed by a cluster analysis for strain or ecotype-level differentiation. As a reference method, delta-PCR was chosen to study the genetic diversity of the employed strains. Finally, the cluster analyses of both methods were compared. It could be shown that MALDI-TOF MS, acting at proteome level, provides valuable information about the relationship between yeast strains and their application potential according to their MALDI mass fingerprint.  相似文献

Six commercial wine yeast strains and three nonindustrial strains (two laboratory strains and one haploid strain derived from a wine yeast strain) were engineered to produce large amounts of glycerol with a lower ethanol yield. Overexpression of the GPD1 gene, encoding a glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, resulted in a 1.5- to 2.5-fold increase in glycerol production and a slight decrease in ethanol formation under conditions simulating wine fermentation. All the strains overexpressing GPD1 produced a larger amount of succinate and acetate, with marked differences in the level of these compounds between industrial and nonindustrial engineered strains. Acetoin and 2,3-butanediol formation was enhanced with significant variation between strains and in relation to the level of glycerol produced. Wine strains overproducing glycerol at moderate levels (12 to 18 g/liter) reduced acetoin almost completely to 2,3-butanediol. A lower biomass concentration was attained by GPD1-overexpressing strains, probably due to high acetaldehyde production during the growth phase. Despite the reduction in cell numbers, complete sugar exhaustion was achieved during fermentation in a sugar-rich medium. Surprisingly, the engineered wine yeast strains exhibited a significant increase in the fermentation rate in the stationary phase, which reduced the time of fermentation.  相似文献

The cryophilic wine yeasts Saccharomyces bayanus YM-84 and YM-126 were used for hybridization with the mesophilic wine yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae OC-2. All six hybrids were stable in tetrad analysis and pulsed field gel electrophoresis, even after twenty subcultures over two years. The fermentabilities of these hybrids at a low temperature of 7°C were superior to the mesophilic wine yeast and the same as the cryophilic wine yeasts. Conversely, their fermentabilities at the intermediate temperatures of 28 and 35°C were similar to the mesophilic wine yeast. For laboratory-scale wine-making using Koshu grape juice at 10°C, the fermentability of these hybrids was superior to the mesophilic wine yeast. They also produced higher amounts of malic acid and flavor compounds such as higher alcohols, β-phenylethyl alcohol, isoamyl acetate and β-phenylethyl acetate, and lower amounts of acetic acid than those of OC-2. These results suggest that the cryophilic wine yeast S. bayanus is useful for improving the low temperature fermentation ability of wine yeast strains.  相似文献

Flor yeasts grow and survive in fino sherry wine where the frequency of respiratory-deficient (petite) mutants is very low. Mitochondria from flor yeasts are highly acetaldehyde- and ethanol-tolerant, and resistant to oxidative stress. However, restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of mtDNA from flor yeast populations is very high and reflects variability induced by the high concentrations of acetaldehyde and ethanol of sherry wine on mtDNA. mtDNA RFLP increases as the concentration of these compounds also increases, but is followed by a total loss of mtDNA in petite cells. Yeasts with functional mitochondria (grande) are target of continuous variability, so that flor yeast mtDNA can evolve extremely rapidly and may serve as a reservoir of genetic diversity, whereas petite mutants are eventually eliminated because metabolism in sherry wine is oxidative.  相似文献

In the production of sherry wines, the process of biological aging is essential for the development of their organoleptic properties. This process involves velum formation by "flor" yeasts. Several of these yeast strains have been isolated and characterized with regard to their genetic, physiological and metabolic properties. In this work, we studied their resistance to cold-, osmotic-, oxidative-, ethanol- and acetaldehyde-stress, and found, in most cases, a correlation between resistance to acetaldehyde stress and ethanol stress and isolation from "soleras." Moreover, gene expression analysis revealed induction of the heat shock protein (HSP) genes HSP12, HSP82, and especially HSP26 and HSP104, under acetaldehyde stress in most of the strains. In strain C, there was a clear correlation between resistance to ethanol and acetaldehyde, the high induction of HSP genes by these compounds and its presence as the predominant strain in most levels of several soleras.  相似文献

Flor strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae form a biofilm on the surface of wine at the end of fermentation, when sugar is depleted and growth on ethanol becomes dependent on oxygen. Here, we report greater biofilm formation on glycerol and ethyl acetate and inconsistent formation on succinic, lactic, and acetic acids.Flor or velum formation by certain wine strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (flor strains) is a form of cellular aggregation observed as an air-liquid interfacial biofilm at the end of the alcoholic fermentation. Formation of the biofilm appears to be an adaptive mechanism because it ensures access to oxygen and therefore permits continued growth on nonfermentable ethanol. In general, nonbuoyant cells cease growth at the end of completed wine fermentations not for lack of carbon but for lack of oxygen. Biofilm cells have been found to have an elevated and/or altered lipid content and increased surface hydrophobicity (3, 5, 8, 9, 11). While both Hsp12, a small heat shock protein (13), and Muc1 (also known as Flo11), a hydrophobic cell wall mannoprotein (4, 6), have been shown to be required for the flor biofilm (10, 12, 14), other genetic or environmental requirements, other than an absence of glucose and the presence of ethanol and oxygen, have not been demonstrated. Here, we asked whether flor formation could be induced during growth on nonfermentable substrates other than ethanol. On the basis of dry weight of biofilm formed per mg of available carbon, the best carbon sources were found to be glycerol, ethyl acetate, and ethanol, in descending order. While subsurface growth occurred on acetic, dl-lactic, and succinic acids, an air-liquid interfacial biofilm did not always form. Microarray analysis of cells shifted from growth on glucose to growth on ethanol did not detect significant changes in expression of known biofilm formation-associated genes.  相似文献

The PCR amplification and subsequent restriction analysis of the region spanning the internal transcribed spacers (ITS1 and ITS2) and the 5.8S rRNA gene was applied to the identification of yeasts belonging to the genus Saccharomyces. This methodology has previously been used for the identification of some species of this genus, but in the present work, this application was extended to the identification of new accepted Saccharomyces species (S. kunashirensis, S. martiniae, S. rosinii, S. spencerorum, and S. transvaalensis), as well as to the differentiation of an interesting group of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, known as flor yeasts, which are responsible for ageing sherry wine. Among the species of the Saccharomyces sensu lato complex, the high diversity observed, either in the length of the amplified region (ranged between 700 and 875 bp) or in their restriction patterns allows the unequivocal identification of these species. With respect to the four sibling species of the Saccharomyces sensu stricto complex, only two of them, S. bayanus and S. pastorianus, cannot be differentiated according to their restriction patterns, which is in accordance with the hybrid origin (S. bayanus × S. cerevisiae) of S. pastorianus. The flor S. cerevisiae strains exhibited restriction patterns different from those typical of the species S. cerevisiae. These differences can easily be used to differentiate this interesting group of strains. We demonstrate that the specific patterns exhibited by flor yeasts are due to the presence of a 24-bp deletion located in the ITS1 region and that this could have originated as a consequence of a slipped-strand mispairing during replication or be due to an unequal crossing-over. A subsequent restriction analysis of this region from more than 150 flor strains indicated that this deletion is fixed in flor yeast populations.  相似文献

Some strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae form a biofilm called a "flor" on the surface of wine after ethanolic fermentation, but the molecular mechanism of flor formation by the wild-type flor strain involved in wine making is not clear. Previously, we found that expression of the C-terminally truncated form of NRG1 (NRG1(1-470)) on a multicopy plasmid increases the hydrophobicity of the cell surface, conferring flor formation on the non-flor laboratory strain. Here we show that in Ar5-H12, a wild-type flor haploid strain, flor formation is regulated by NRG1(1-470). Moreover, the disruptant of the wild-type flor diploid strain (Deltaflo11/Deltaflo11) show a weak ability to form the flor. The expression of FLO11 is always high in the wild-type flor strain, regardless of carbon source. Thus FLO11 is primary factor for wild-type flor strains. Furthermore, the disruptant (Deltaflo11) shows lower hydrophobicity of cell surface than the wild type. However, the hydrophobicity of the wild-type flor strains grown in ethanol medium was much higher than those grown in glucose medium. These results indicate that cell surface hydrophobicity is closely related to flor formation in wild-type flor yeasts.  相似文献

Autolysis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the main source of molecules that contribute to the quality of sparkling wines made by the traditional method. In this work the possibility of accelerating this slow process in order to improve the quality of sparkling wines by using genetically engineered wine yeast strains was explored. The effect of partial or total deletion of BCY1 (which encodes a regulatory subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A) in haploid and diploid (heterozygous and homozygous) yeast strains was studied. We proved that heterozygous strains having partial or complete BCY1 deletions have a semidominant phenotype for several of the properties studied, including autolysis under simulated second-fermentation conditions, in contrast to previously published reports describing mutations in BCY1 as recessive. Considering the degree of autolysis, ethanol tolerance, and technical feasibility, we propose that deletion of the 3′ end of the open reading frame of a single copy of BCY1 is a way to improve the quality of sparkling wines.  相似文献

Raffia wine is a traditional alcoholic beverage produced in several African countries where it plays a significant role in traditional customs and population diet. Alcoholic fermentation of this beverage is ensured by a complex natural yeast flora which plays a decisive role in the quality of the final product. This present study aims to evaluate the distribution and the diversity of the yeast strains isolated in raffia wine from four sampling areas (Abengourou, Alépé, Grand-Lahou and Adzopé) in Côte d’Ivoire. Based on the D1/D2 domain of the LSU rDNA sequence analysis, nine species belonging to six genera were distinguished. With a percentage of 69.5 % out of 171 yeast isolates, Saccharomyces cerevisiae was the predominant species in the raffia wine, followed by Kodamaea ohmeri (20.4 %). The other species isolated were Candida haemulonii (4.1 %), Candida phangngensis (1.8 %), Pichia kudriavzevii (1.2 %), Hanseniaspora jakobsenii (1.2 %), Candida silvae (0.6 %), Hanseniaspora guilliermondii (0.6 %) and Meyerozyma caribbica (0.6 %). The molecular characterization of S. cerevisiae isolates at the strain level using the PCR-interdelta method revealed the presence of 21 profiles (named I to XXI) within 115 isolates. Only four profiles (I, III, V and XI) were shared by the four areas under study. Phenotypic characterization of K. ohmeri strains showed two subgroups for sugar fermentation and no diversity for the nitrogen compound assimilations and the growth at different temperatures.  相似文献
