高耐酸酒酒球菌常压室温等离子体诱变选育及其苹果酸-乳酸发酵研究

【目的】为选育出高度耐酸性酒酒球菌（Oenococcus oeni）突变菌株,研究其胁迫耐受性能及苹果酸-乳酸发酵（malolactic fermentation,MLF）能力。【方法】以酒酒球菌SD-2a为出发菌株,通过常压室温等离子体（atmospheric and room temperature plasma,ARTP）诱变技术,筛选高耐酸性酒酒球菌突变菌株,并探究其乙醇耐受性及在模拟酒和葡萄酒条件下的MLF能力。【结果】经过ARTP诱变处理后,利用pH 3.0的胁迫传代培养和分离纯化等,获得了5株β-葡萄糖苷酶活性较好的耐酸突变菌株,且在高乙醇浓度下表现出了较好的耐乙醇性。其中突变菌株ARTP-2在模拟酒中的β-葡萄糖苷酶活性和l-苹果酸累积降解量最高,且其在葡萄酒中l-苹果酸降解速率快于出发菌株,在第18天完成MLF,发酵后的葡萄酒香气成分的含量显著高于接种SD-2a的酒样。【结论】突变菌株ARTP-2具有良好的胁迫耐受性和MLF能力,对葡萄酒的香气起到积极的作用,为进一步开发优质的MLF商业发酵剂奠定基础。     

苹果酸-乳酸发酵能量产生机理

苹果酸乳酸发酵(MLF)是现代葡萄酒酿造工艺中重要的生物降酸手段。MLF是L苹果酸在乳酸菌的苹果酸乳酸酶催化下转变成L乳酸的酶促反应过程,该过程没有底物水平的磷酸化,但在MLF过程中苹果酸确实能够刺激细菌的比生长速率,增加细菌生物量。进一步的研究表明,代谢能的产生并非由于苹果酸的脱羧反应,而主要源于跨膜的L苹果酸摄入和(或)L乳酸的流出,从而产生跨膜质子电动势(pmf)(一小部分能量可能由L苹果酸的代谢中间产物丙酮酸产生)。按照化学渗透理论,pmf驱动F0F1ATPase合成ATP用于细菌生长。本文还对苹果酸的运输机制进行了综述。     

酒酒球菌的快速特异性PCR鉴定

以Oenococcus oeni苹果酸-乳酸酶基因(mleA)为目标基因,设计了1对特异性引物PmleaL/PmleaR进行酒酒球菌的快速鉴定研究。结果表明,直接以O.oeni的菌落为模板,通过引物对PmleaL/PmleaR的PCR扩增,可得到mleA基因的特异性条带;用此特异性引物进行供试乳酸菌的PCR鉴定,所有O.oeni菌系均得到特异性条带,而供试的其它种类乳酸菌未扩增出目标带。PmleaL/PmleaR可用于O.oeni的快速PCR鉴定。     

Influence of fatty acids on the growth of wine microorganisms Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Oenococcus oeni

The effects of fatty acids, extracted during prefermentation grape skin-contact on Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Oenococcus oeni, were studied. The influence of skin-contact on total fatty acid content was evaluated both in Chardonnay must and in synthetic medium. Prior to alcoholic fermentation, the skin-contact contributes to a large enrichment of long-chain fatty acids (C₁₆ to C_18:3). These results induced a positive effect on yeast growth and particularly on cell viability. In the skin-contact fermented media, levels of C₁₂ and especially C₁₀ are lower and macromolecules content higher than in controls. This production of extracellular mannoproteins and the reduction of medium-chain fatty acids in media by S. cerevisiae increased growth of O. oeni. The influence of fatty acids (C₁₀ to C_18:3), in their free and esterified forms, on bacterial growth and on malolactic activity was also examined. Only C₁₀ and C₁₂, especially in their esterified forms, always appeared to be toxic to O. oeni. Received 15 May 1997/ Accepted in revised form 02 December 1997     

Interactions between Saccharomyces cerevisiae and malolactic bacteria: preliminary characterization of a yeast proteinaceous compound(s) active against Oenococcus oeni

AIMS: To investigate the occurrence and extent of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Oenococcus oeni interactions. METHODS AND RESULTS: Interactions between S. cerevisiae and O. oeni were investigated by double-layer and well-plate assays showing the occurrence of specific interactions for each yeast-malolactic bacteria (MLB) coupling. Heat and protease treatments of synthetic grape juice fermented by the S. cerevisiae strain F63 indicated that the inhibitory activity exerted by this yeast on O. oeni is due to a proteinaceous factor(s) which exerts either bacteriostatic or bactericidal effect depending on concentration and affects malolactic fermentation in natural grape juice and wine. CONCLUSIONS: A proteinaceous factor(s) produced by a S. cerevisiae wine strain able to inhibit O. oeni growth and malic acid fermentation was characterized. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The individuation, characterization and exploitation of yeast proteinaceous factor(s) exerting inhibitory activity on MLB may offer new opportunities for the management of malolactic fermentation.

Purification and partial characterization of Oenococcus oeni exoprotease

The exoprotease from Oenococcus oeni produced in stress conditions was purified to homogeneity in two steps, a 14-fold increase of specific activity and a 44% recovery of proteinase activity. The molecular mass was estimated to be 33.1 kDa by gel filtration and 17 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). These results suggest that the enzyme is a dimer consisting of two identical subunits. Optimal conditions for activity on grape juice were 25 degrees C and a pH of 4.5. Incubation at 70 degrees C, 15 min, destroyed proteolytic activity. The SDS-PAGE profile shows that the enzyme was able to degrade the grape juice proteins at a significantly high rate. The activity at low pH and pepstatin A inhibition indicate that this enzyme is an aspartic protease. The protease activity increases at acidic pH suggesting that it could be involved in the wine elaboration.     

Lysis of yeast cells by Oenococcus oeni enzymes

Oenococcus oeni exhibited extracellular β (1→3) glucanase activity. This activity increased when cells were cultivated with glycosidic cell-wall macromolecules. In addition, the culture supernatant of the organism effectively lysed viable or dead cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This lytic activity appeared in the early stationary phase of bacterial growth. Yeast cells at the end of the log phase of growth were the most sensitive. The optimum temperature for lysis of viable yeast cells was 40°C, which is very different from the temperatures observed in enological conditions (15–20°C). Moreover, the rate of the lytic activity was significantly lower in comparison with yeast cell wall-degrading activities previously measured in various other microorganisms. Therefore, yeast cell death that is sometimes observed during the alcoholic fermentation could hardly be attributed to the lytic activity of O. oeni.
