Autochthonous non-Saccharomyces extra-cellular metabolism of tryptophan, tyrosine, and phenylalanine

Abstract

Amino acids are crucial nitrogen sources in yeast metabolism, influencing both biomass production and fermentation rate. The breakdown byproducts of amino acids contribute to the aroma of the wine and wine’s health benefit compounds. This study focused on the yeast’s extracellular metabolic profile of tryptophan, tyrosine, and phenylalanine belonging to the group of aromatic amino acids in experimental Maraština wines. Alcoholic fermentations were conducted on sterile grape Maraština must using seven autochthonous non-Saccharomycesyeasts in sequential fermentation with commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Trials were performed with isolates Metschnikowia pulcherrima K-6, Metschnikowia chyrsoperlae K-11, Metschnikowia sinensis/shanxiensis P-7, Lachancea thermotolerans P-25, Pichia kluyveri Z-3, Hanseniaspora uvarum Z-7, and Hanseniaspora guillermondii N-29, each in triplicate. The control treatment involved commercial strains L. thermotolerans, M. pulcherrima, and S. cerevisiae. A UHPLC-QqQ-MS/MS method was employed to monitor 37 metabolites, with 26 detected in the extracellular extracts produced by yeasts. The most significant changes in the concentration of identified compounds occurred in M. sinensis/shanxiensis/S. cerevisiae and H. guillermondii/S. cerevisiae ferments. M. sinensis/shanxiensiswith S. cerevisiae produced higher amounts of N-acetyl derivatives of tryptophan and phenylalanine, as well as xanthurenic acid and tyramine. Wines produced by H. guillermondii in sequential fermentation with S. cerevisiae had the highest concentration of L-kynurenine and 3-hydroxy anthranilic acid. These findings contribute to our understanding of how autochthonous non-Saccharomyces yeasts contribute to the aroma profile of wines, providing new insights into biotechnological tools for the production of wine starter cultures.

Opportunities and challenges in the adoption of new grape varieties by producers: A case study from the Northeastern United

Grape breeding for resistance to fungal diseases is today very dynamic throughout the world notably in France. New varieties are obtained by hybridization between susceptible varieties of the vitis vinifera species and resistant genotypes, with breeding programs generally lasting between 15 and 25 years and resulting in the registration of a few new varieties. Though these varieties can provide several benefits and can be planted by winegrowers, they are not always systematically adopted.

Contribution of grape seeds to evolution of acetaldehyde, pigments and tannins reactive towards salivary proteins of red wine over time

This study investigated the impact of the gsk/gse ratio on the evolution of acetaldehyde and of major phenolic compounds of aglianico wine in wine like solution and real wine. Four model solutions and the correspondant control wines were prepared. The natural weight ratio between grape skins and seeds was determined on the real grapes, and a control wine was obtained from those.

Role of Grape-Extractable Polyphenols in the Generation of Strecker Aldehydes and in the Instability of Polyfunctional Mercaptans during Wine Oxidation

Wine longevity is a complex multifactor phenomenon in which the weight of the different factors is not well known. One of the key factors of wine longevity is related to its resistance to oxidation. This property can be defined as the ability of the wine, under an exposure to oxygen, to keep its color, avoid accumulation of acetaldehyde and Strecker aldehydes (SA), and keep as long as

Effect of the addition of polysaccharides extracted for grape pomace and must on sensory and chemical composition of white wines

AIM: The objective of this work is to study the effect of the addition of polysaccharides extracted for grape pomace by-products and musts on sensory and chemical composition of white wines. Much of the waste obtained in the wine sector is not used, and they can have some valuable compounds, such as the polysaccharides (PS).

Application of a low-cost device VIS-NIRs-based for polyphenol monitoring during the vinification process

In red wine production, phenolic maturity is becoming increasingly important. Anthocyanins, flavonoids and total polyphenols content and availability significantly influence the harvest time of wine grapes while, during vinification process, their extraction strongly affects wine body, color and texture
