Widely targeted metabolomic analysis reveals metabolite changes induced by incorporating black tea fermentation techniques in oolong tea processing for quality improvement. Food Chem 2024; 459:140433. [PMID: 39024882 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.140433] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2024] [Revised: 06/24/2024] [Accepted: 07/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024]
Abstract
Oolong tea, a semi-fermented tea, has a prominent fruity and floral aroma, resembling green tea's astringency and pungency but lacking black tea's mellowness. Oolong tea incorporating black tea fermentation techniques (OT-IBTFT) not only retained its excellent floral and fruity aroma but also reduced astringency and enriched taste. However, metabolite changes remain unknown. In this study, widely targeted metabolomic analysis showed OT-IBTFT reduced prunin, gallocatechin, methyl gallate, and increased loliolide by changing the flavonoid biosynthesis and biosynthesis of secondary metabolites pathways, thereby reducing the astringency and increasing the mellow taste and richness to improve oolong tea quality. In addition, Wrap-rolling 5 times increased fermentation, improving the color and aroma of oolong tea by increasing theaflavic acid and 2-furoic acid, is more significant than wrap-rolling once. In conclusion, these findings provide a theoretical basis for the improvement of oolong tea processing techniques and flavor and quality control.

Singh S, Yadav P, Yadav KS. A novel diglycosidase for the transformation of naringin to naringenin and neohesperidose. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 280:135744. [PMID: 39304037 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.135744] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2024] [Revised: 08/28/2024] [Accepted: 09/15/2024] [Indexed: 09/22/2024]
Abstract
A novel fungal diglycosidase that transforms naringin into naringenin and neohesperidose, a rare biotransformation, has been purified to homogeneity using a simple procedure involving precipitation of the enzyme from the culture filtrate of the fungal strain using 80 % saturation of ammonium sulphate, dissolving the precipitate in minimum volume of the buffer and dialysing that against the buffer. The purified enzyme gives single protein bands of molecular mass 64.6 kDa in SDS-PAGE analysis. The purity of the enzyme has been further confirmed by the appearance of single protein band in native page analysis. Using naringin as the substrate, the diglycosidase has Km and kcat values of 0.20 m mol L-1 and 0.66 s-1, respectively, at pH 4.0 and 313 K. The specific activity of the purified enzyme using naringin as the natural substrate is 1.018 katal/kg. The diglycosidase also transforms rutin into quercetin and rutinose but has no effect on hesperidin. The feasibilities of preparing neohesperidose from naringin and rutinose from rutin on milligram scales using the pure enzyme have been demonstrated. These results open the way for developing an enzymatic process for preparation of neohesperidose from naringin. The reported diglycosidase has immense future applications in food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
A naringinase complex was chemically aminated prior to its immobilization on glyoxyl-agarose to develop a robust biocatalyst for juice debittering. The effects of amination on the optimal pH and temperature, thermal stability, and debittering performance were analyzed. Concentration of amino groups on catalysts surface increased in 36 %. Amination reduced the β-glucosidase activity of naringinase complex; however, did not affect optimal pH and temperature of the enzyme and it favored immobilization, obtaining α-l-rhamnosidase and β-d-glucosidase activities of 1.7 and 4.2 times the values obtained when the unmodified enzymes were immobilized. Amination favored the stability of the immobilized biocatalyst, retaining 100 % of both activities after 190 h at 30 °C and pH 3, while its non-aminated counterpart retained 80 and 52 % of α-rhamnosidase and β-glucosidase activities, respectively. The immobilized catalyst showed a better performance in grapefruit juice debittering, obtaining a naringin conversion of 7 times the value obtained with the non-aminated catalyst.

Abstract
The development of a sustainable and efficient bioconversion strategy is crucial for the full-component utilization of naringin. In this study, an engineering Pichia pastoris co-culture system was developed to produce L-rhamnose and 2S/2R-naringenin. By optimizing transformation conditions, the co-culture system could completely convert naringin while fully consuming glucose. The production of 2S/2R-naringenin reached 59.5 mM with a molar conversion of 99.2%, and L-rhamnose reached 59.1 mM with a molar conversion of 98.5%. In addition, an engineering Escherichia coli co-culture system was developed to produce 2R-naringenin and kaempferol from 2S/2R-naringenin. Maximal kaempferol production reached 1050 mg/L with a corresponding molar conversion of 99.0%, and 996 mg/L 2R-naringenin was accumulated. Finally, a total of 17.4 g 2R-naringenin, 18.0 g kaempferol, and 26.1 g L-rhamnose were prepared from 100 g naringin. Thus, this study provides a novel strategy for the production of value-added compounds from naringin with an environmentally safe process.

Modulating flavanone compound for reducing the bitterness and improving dietary fiber, physicochemical properties, and anti-adipogenesis of green yuzu powder by enzymatic hydrolysis. Food Chem X 2024; 22:101329. [PMID: 38623509 PMCID: PMC11016862 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101329] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2023] [Revised: 03/21/2024] [Accepted: 03/21/2024] [Indexed: 04/17/2024] Open
Abstract
Yuzu (Citrus junos Sieb.) is a peel-edible fruit with a pleasant aroma, but its bitter taste can impact consumer appeal. In this study, an efficient enzymatic method reduced bitterness in green yuzu powder (GYP). Cellulase KN and naringinase from Aspergillus oryzae NYO-2 significantly decreased naringin and neohesperidin content by over 87 %, while increasing total dietary fiber and soluble dietary fiber by up to 10 % and 51 %, respectively. Insoluble dietary fiber decreased by up to 22 %. Cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and pectin contents in enzyme-treated YP decreased by 1.15-2.00-fold, respectively. Enzyme-treated GYP exhibited improved physicochemical properties, including enhanced solubility, oil-holding capacity, and water swelling capacities. 3T3-L1 cells treated with cellulase-treated GYP and naringinase-treated GYP showed lower lipid accumulation and higher lipolysis capability than GYP, along with decreased fatty acid synthase contents. These findings suggest that enzyme-treated GYP holds potential as a functional ingredient in the food industry.

Efficient biosynthesis of prunin in methanol cosolvent system by an organic solvent-tolerant α-L-rhamnosidase from Spirochaeta thermophila. Enzyme Microb Technol 2024; 175:110410. [PMID: 38340378 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2024.110410] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2023] [Revised: 01/29/2024] [Accepted: 02/03/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024]
Abstract
Prunin of desirable bioactivity and bioavailability can be transformed from plant-derived naringin by the key enzyme α-L-rhamnosidase. However, the production was limited by unsatisfactory properties of α-L-rhamnosidase such as thermostability and organic solvent tolerance. In this study, biochemical characteristics, and hydrolysis capacity of a novel α-L-rhamnosidase from Spirochaeta thermophila (St-Rha) were investigated, which was the first characterized α-L-rhamnosidase for Spirochaeta genus. St-Rha showed a higher substrate specificity towards naringin and exhibited excellent thermostability and methanol tolerance. The Km of St-Rha in the methanol cosolvent system was decreased 7.2-fold comparing that in the aqueous phase system, while kcat/Km value of St-Rha was enhanced 9.3-fold. Meanwhile, a preliminary conformational study was implemented through comparative molecular dynamics simulation analysis to explore the mechanism underlying the methanol tolerance of St-Rha for the first time. Furthermore, the catalytic ability of St-Rha for prunin preparation in the 20% methanol cosolvent system was explored, and 200 g/L naringin was transformed into 125.5 g/L prunin for 24 h reaction with a corresponding space-time yield of 5.2 g/L/h. These results indicated that St-Rha was a novel α-L-rhamnosidase suitable for hydrolyzing naringin in the methanol cosolvent system and provided a better alternative for improving the efficient production yield of prunin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ji-Ming-Shan (JMS) is a traditional prescription used for patients with rheumatism, tendons swelling, relief of foot pain, athlete's foot, diuresis, gout. Although many studies have investigated the active compounds in each herb, the functional mechanism behind its therapeutic effect remains unclear. STUDY DESIGN Metabolic cages for sample collection. The serum components obtained from the experimental animals were analyzed using LC-MS/MS. Furthermore, cross-analysis using the software MetaboAnalyst and Venn diagrams were used to investigate chronopharmacology of JMS in the animal models. PURPOSE The aim of this study is to analyze the diuretic effects of JMS and to explore their chronopharmacology involved in organ regulation through four-quarter periods from serum samples of rat models. METHODS Metabolic cages were used for collecting the urine samples and PocketChem UA PU-4010, Fuji DRI-CHEM 800 were used to examine the urine biochemical parameters. The serum components were identified through ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight (UPLC-Q-TOF) with a new developed method. Cross analysis, Venn diagram, MetaboAnalyst were used to investigate the key biomarker and major metabolism route with the oral administration of the drug. RESULT JMS significantly changed the 6 h urine volume with no observed kidney toxicity. Urine pH value ranges from 7.0 to 7.5. The chronopharmacology of JMS diuresis activity were 0-6 and 6-12 groups. UPLC-Q-TOF analyses identified 243 metabolites which were determined in positive mode and negative mode respectively. With cross analysis in the Venn diagram, one key biomarker naringenin-7-O-glucoside has been identified. Major metabolic pathways such as 1: Glycerophospholipid metabolism, 2: Primary bile acid biosynthesis, 3: Sphingolipid metabolism, 4: Riboflavin metabolism, 5: Linoleic acid metabolism, 6: Butanoate metabolism. CONCLUSION JMS significantly changed the urine output of animals in the 0-6 and 6-12 groups. No change in urine pH was observed and also kidney toxicity. A new UPLC-Q-TOF method was developed for the detection of the metabolites of JMS after oral administration. The cross analysis with Venn diagram and identified the key biomarker of JMS namely naringenin-7-O-glucoside. The results showed that six major pathways are involved in the gastrointestinal system and the liver. This study demonstrated the capability of JMS prescription in the regulation of diuresis and identified a key biomarker that is responsible for its therapeutic effect.

Abstract
Enzymatic modifications have been applied in citrus to enhance their physicochemical and biological properties and reduce their bitterness. Notwithstanding, research on the combination of enzyme treatment of yuzu is lacking. In this study, yuzu was treated with a combination of isolated cellulase NY203, pectinase UF, and cellulase KN, and this enzymatic treatment was found to increase monosaccharide, naringenin, and hesperetin levels. In contrast, dietary fiber, cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and pectin levels were decreased. Moreover, the enzymes disintegrated the inner and outer surface structures and chemical bonding of yuzu, thus improving its solubility rate, water-holding capacity, oil-adsorption capacity, cholesterol-binding capacity, and water-swelling capacity. Furthermore, NY203 + UF + KN combination treatment reduced the bitterness of treated yuzu by 50 % compared with the control. Additionally, NY203 + UF + KN treatment yielded a 28 % decrease in lipid accumulation and two-fold higher lipolytic activity in 3T3L-1 adipocytes. These findings are potentially beneficial to the food/nutraceutical industries regarding functional yuzu powder production.

Naringin found in citrus fruits is a flavanone glycoside with numerous biological activities. However, the bitterness, low water-solubility, and low bioavailability of naringin are the main issues limiting its use in the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries. Herein, a glucansucrase from isolated Leuconostoc citreum NY87 was used for trans-α-glucosylattion of naringin by using sucrose as substrate. Two naringin glucosides (O-α-D-glucosyl-(1'''' → 6″) naringin (compound 1) and 4'-O-α-D-glucosyl naringin (compound 2)) were purified and determined their structures by nuclear magnetic resonance. The optimization condition for the synthesis of compound 1 was obtained at 10 mM naringin, 200 mM sucrose, and 337.5 mU/mL at 28 °C for 24 h by response surface methodology method. Compound 1 and compound 2 showed 1896- and 3272 times higher water solubility than naringin. Furthermore, the bitterness via the human bitter taste receptor TAS2R39 displayed that compound 1 was reduced 2.9 times bitterness compared with naringin, while compound 2 did not express bitterness at 1 mM. Both compounds expressed higher neuroprotective effects than naringin on human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells treated with 5 mM scopolamine based on cell viability and cortisol content. Compound 1 reduced acetylcholinesterase activity more than naringin and compound 2. These results indicate that naringin glucosides could be utilized as functional material in the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries. KEY POINTS: • A novel O-α-D-glucosyl-(1 → 6) naringin was synthesized using glucansucrase from L. citreum NY87. • Naringin glucosides improved water-solubility and neuroprotective effects on SH-SY5Y cells. • Naringin glucosides showed a decrease in bitterness on bitter taste receptor 39.

Abstract
In our previous work, postredienes A-C, three unusual linear sesterterpenes with high antifungal activities, were isolated from Pleurotus ostreatus SY10 when cocultured with Trametes robiniophila SY636. However, their titers were low, and exploration of newly biosynthesized trace analogues is required. Herein, genome mining analysis predicted that 17 gene clusters are involved in terpenoid biosynthesis in P. ostreatus. Thus, coculture conditions for strains SY10 and SY636 were optimized using a single-factor test and Box-Behnken design. As a result, the titers of postredienes A-C were increased by over 2.5-fold, reaching 1.28 to 8.40 mg/L. Moreover, five new terpenoids, named postredienes D-H (1-5), were successfully isolated. Compound 1 exhibited activities against the human pathogenic fungi Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans comparable to those of amphotericin B. Compound 2 represents a novel sesterterpene with a five-membered ring at C-7. The absolute configurations of 1-5 were elucidated by making the methoxyphenylacetic acid esters and acetonide derivatives, combined with ECD and NMR calculation. Two potential gene clusters and relevant biosynthetic pathways for 1-5 were subsequently proposed based on real-time reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) analysis. The current study provides new insights into the research of terpenoid biosynthesis genes in P. ostreatus and other basidiomycetes.
