Peptides diversity and oxidative sensitivity: case of specific optimized inactivated yeasts

Abstract

Estimation of the resistance of a wine against oxidation is of great importance for the wine. To that purpose, most of the commonly used chemical assays that are dedicated to estimate the antioxidant (or antiradical) capacity of a wine consist in measuring the capacity of the wine to reduce an oxidative compound or a stable radical. In the must/wine matrix, polyphenols are major compounds likely to react with oxidant or radical, but such reaction generate quinones that then are involved in varietal aroma loss via nucleophilic addition reaction. It raises the paradox that a good antioxidant capacity does not imply a good protection of such sensitive compounds as aromatic compounds which are wine key quality markers.

The authors have developed a methodology focusing on the survival time of a sensitive compound to estimate the oxidative sensitivity of a solution. A labeled nucleophile is monitored by UHPLC-ESI-Q-ToF MS periodically for hours (from 0.5h to 72h) after a chemical initiation of oxidation in wine model solution containing 4-methylcatechol. 7 Cystein containing peptides (alone or in combination) are used to artificially increase the nucleophilic environment (and thus the competition for quinone nucleophilic addition) and estimate the half-life of the labeled nucleophile. In addition, soluble fraction released by different inactivated yeasts are also used as complex source of nucleophiles.

Half-life of the labeled compound is the final expression of several complex mechanisms such as nucleophilic competition, but also oxygen consumption, or catechol reduction.
Independently of the mechanisms, we can observe that increasing the nucleophilic environment improve the half life of the labeled nucleophile. It is notably visible for the specific optimized inactivated yeast which released many cysteine-containing peptides.
Finally, this method relies on the fate of one sensitive nucleophile to estimate the sensitiveness of the whole matrix to oxidation. It estimates the half-life of this compound which allows to compare oxidative sensitivity of different matrices under specific oxidation conditions.

From soil to canopy, the diversity of adaptation strategies  to abiotic constraints in grapevine

Climate change is here. One of the main consequences is an increase in the frequency and severity of abiotic stresses which mostly occur in a combined manner. Grapevine, which grows in a large diversity of pedo-climatic conditions, has presumably evolved different mechanisms to allow this widespread adaptation. Harnessing the genetic diversity in these mechanisms will be central to the future of viticulture in many traditional wine growing areas. The interactions between the scion and the rootstock through grafting add an additional level of diversity and adaptive potential to explore.
At the physiological level, these mechanisms are related to processes such as root system development and functioning (water and nutrient uptake), interactions with the soil microbiome, gas exchange regulation, hydraulic properties along the soil-plant-atmosphere continuum, reserve storage, short and long distance signaling mechanisms and plasticity for some of these traits.

TANNINS AND ANTHOCYANINS KINETICS OF EXTRACTION FROM ARINARNOA, MARSELAN AND TANNAT UNDER DIFFERENT WINEMAKING TECHNIQUES

Marselan wines have an unusual high proportion of seed derived tannins from grapes having high proportions of skins, which are rich in tannins. But the causes behind this characteristic have not yet been identified. In vintage 2023 wines were made at experimental scale (9 kg by experimental unit) from Arinarnoa, Marselan and Tannat Vitis vinifera grape cultivars by traditional maceration, and by techniques aimed to increase the wine content in skin derived tannin: addition of extraction enzymes, addition at vatting of grape-skin enological tannins, or by extended maceration, known to increase the seed derived tannin contents of wines.

Grapevine drought tolerant ideotypes to adapt viticulture to climate change

Climate change is challenging the resilience of grapevine, one of the most important crops worldwide. Adapting viticulture to a hotter and drier future will require a multifaceted approach that must include new management strategies, increased irrigation efficiency, and the identification of more drought tolerant genotypes.
