[PMID: 38905810 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2024.110788] [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: 04/11/2024] [Revised: 06/04/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/23/2024]
Abstract
During alcoholic fermentation, Saccharomyces cerevisiae synthesizes different compounds, which are crucial for product quality: volatile compounds with sensory impact, and bioactive compounds such as melatonin (MEL) and hydroxytyrosol (HT), linked to health benefits. As many of these compounds are related with yeast's nitrogen metabolism, their production have been studied in four different commercial strains with different nitrogen requirement (Red Fruit, Uvaferm VRB, Lalvin Rhone 2323 and Lalvin QA23) being, Uvaferm UVR the higher nitrogen demander strain. All strains produced the secondary metabolites, notably Uvaferm UVR produced the highest HT concentration, despite its low growth. Uvaferm UVR emerged also as a significant producer of MEL, indicating a potential role in fermentation related stress. Moreover, Uvaferm UVR shows the highest total concentrations of volatile compounds. Multivariate analysis revealed distinct clustering based on nitrogen requirements of the strains, highlighting the strain-dependent metabolic responses.

Abstract
Inoculation modes are known to affect yeast behavior. Here, we characterized the impact of ADY and pre-culturing on the composition of the resulting wine, fermented by four commercial strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Classical oenological parameters were not affected by the yeast inoculation mode. Using an untargeted metabolomic approach, a significant distinction in wine composition was noted regardless of the strain between the two inoculation modes, each associated with a specific metabolomic signature. 218 and 895 biomarkers were annotated, respectively, for ADYs associated with the preservation of wine polyphenols, and for pre-cultures related to the modulation of yeast nitrogen metabolism. Volatilome analysis revealed that the ester family was that most impacted by the inoculation mode whatever the strain. Ester production was enhanced in ADY condition. For the first time, the complete reprogramming of the yeast metabolism was revealed as a function of yeast preparation, which significantly impacts its volatilome and exometabolome.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate how parental genomes contribute to yeast hybrid metabolism using a metabolomic approach. Previous studies have explored central carbon and nitrogen metabolism in Saccharomyces species during wine fermentation, but this study analyses the metabolomes of Saccharomyces hybrids for the first time. We evaluated the oenological performance and intra- and extracellular metabolomes, and we compared the strains according to nutrient consumption and production of the main fermentative by-products. Surprisingly, no common pattern was observed for hybrid genome influence; each strain behaved differently during wine fermentation. However, this study suggests that the genome of the S. cerevisiae species may play a more relevant role in fermentative metabolism. Variations in biomass/nitrogen ratios were also noted, potentially linked to S. kudriavzevii and S. uvarum genome contributions. These results open up possibilities for further research using different "omics" approaches to comprehend better metabolic regulation in hybrid strains with genomes from different species.

Differences in the management of intracellular redox state between wine yeast species dictate their fermentation performances and metabolite production. Int J Food Microbiol 2024; 411:110537. [PMID: 38150773 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2023.110537] [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: 09/20/2023] [Revised: 12/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 12/29/2023]
Abstract
The maintenance of the balance between oxidised and reduced redox cofactors is essential for the functioning of many cellular processes in all living organisms. While the electron transport chain plays a key role in maintaining this balance under respiratory conditions, its inactivity in the absence of oxygen poses a challenge that yeasts such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae overcome through the production of various metabolic end-products during alcoholic fermentation. In this study, we investigated the diversity occurring between wine yeast species in their management of redox balance and its consequences on the fermentation performances and the formation of metabolites. To this aim, we quantified the changes in NAD(H) and NADP(H) concentrations and redox status throughout the fermentation of 6 wine yeast species. While the availability of NADP and NADPH remained balanced and stable throughout the process for all the strains, important differences between species were observed in the dynamics of NAD and NADH intracellular pools. A comparative analysis of these data with the fermentation capacity and metabolic profiles of the strains revealed that Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Torulaspora delbrueckii and Lachancea thermotolerans strains were able to reoxidise NADH to NAD throughout the fermentation, mainly by the formation of glycerol. These species exhibited good fermentation capacities. Conversely, Starmerella bacillaris and Metschnikowia pulcherrima species were unable to regenerate NAD as early as one third of sugars were consumed, explaining at least in part their poor growth and fermentation performances. The Kluyveromyces marxianus strain exhibited a specific behaviour, by maintaining similar levels of NAD and NADH throughout the process. This balance between oxidised and reduced redox cofactors ensured the consumption of a large part of sugars by this species, despite a low fermentation rate. In addition, the dynamics of redox cofactors affected the production of by-products by the various strains either directly or indirectly, through the formation of precursors. Major examples are the increased formation of glycerol by S. bacillaris and M. pulcherrima strains, as a way of trying to reoxidise NADH, and the greater capacity to produce acetate and derived metabolites of yeasts capable of maintaining their redox balance. Overall, this study provided new insight into the contribution of the management of redox status to the orientation of yeast metabolism during fermentation. This information should be taken into account when developing strategies for more efficient and effective fermentation.

Abstract
Although vitamins are prime actors in yeast metabolism, the nature and the extent of their requirement in Saccharomyces cerevisiae in winemaking remains little understood. To fill this gap, the evolution of 8 water-soluble vitamins and their diverse vitamers during its alcoholic fermentation in a synthetic must medium was monitored, providing the first evidence of the consumption of vitamers by five commercial S. cerevisiae strains, and highlighting the existence of preferential vitameric sources for its nutrition. The vitamins required by the yeast, B1, B5, and B8, were then identified, and the nature of their requirement characterized, strongly asserting the required trait of B1 for fermentation, B8 for growth, and B5 for both processes. The extent of the requirement for B5, that with the most impact of the three vitamins, was then quantified in three S. cerevisiae strains, resulting in the conclusion that 750 μg.L-1 should prove sufficient to cover the yeast's requirements. This investigation offers the first insight into S. cerevisiae vitaminic requirements for winemaking.

The aromatic profile of wine distillates from Ugni blanc grape musts is influenced by the nitrogen nutrition (organic vs. inorganic) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Food Microbiol 2023; 111:104193. [PMID: 36681397 DOI: 10.1016/j.fm.2022.104193] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2022] [Revised: 11/21/2022] [Accepted: 11/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
Although the impact of nitrogen nutrition on the production of fermentative aromas in oenological fermentation is well known today, one may wonder whether the effects studied are the same when winemaking takes place at high turbidities, specifically for the production of wines intended for cognac distillation. To that effect, a fermentation robot was used to analyze 30 different fermentation conditions at two turbidity levels with several factors tested: (i) initial addition of nitrogen either organic (with a mixture of amino acids - MixAA) or inorganic with di-ammonium phosphate (DAP) at different concentrations, (ii) variation of the ratio of inorganic/organic nitrogen (MixAA and DAP) and (iii) addition of different single amino acids (alanine, arginine, aspartic acid and glutamic acid). A metabolomic analysis was carried out on all resulting wines to have a global vision of the impact of nitrogen on more than sixty aromatic molecules of various families. Then, at the end of the alcoholic fermentation, the wines were micro-distilled. A first interesting observation was that the aroma profiles of both wines and distillates were close, indicating that the concentration factor is rather similar for the different aromas studied. Secondly, the fermentation kinetics and aroma results have shown that the nitrogen concentration effect prevailed over the nature of nitrogen. Although the lipid concentration was in excess, an interaction between the assimilable nitrogen and lipid contents was still observed in wines or in micro-distillates. Alanine is involved in the synthesis of acetaldehyde, isobutanol, isoamyl alcohol and isoamyl acetate. Finally, it was demonstrated that modifying the ratio of assimilable nitrogen in musts is not an interesting technological response to improve the aromatic profile of wines and brandies. Indeed, unbalance the physiological ratio of the must by adding a single source of assimilable nitrogen (organic or inorganic) has been shown to deregulate the synthesis of most of the fermentation aromas produced by the yeast. Wine metabolomic analysis confirmed the results that had been observed in micro-distillates but also in the other aromatic families, especially on terpenes. The contribution of solid particles, but also yeast biosynthesis (via sterol management in must) to wine terpenes is discussed. Indeed, the synthesis of terpenes in this oenological context seems to be favored, especially since the concentration of assimilable nitrogen (in addition to the lipid content) favor their accumulation in the medium. A non-negligible vintage effect on the terpene profile was also demonstrated with variations in their distribution depending on the years. Thus, the present study focuses on the metabolism of wine yeasts under different environmental conditions (nitrogen and lipid content) and on the impact of distillation on the fate of flavor compounds. The results highlight once again the complexity of metabolic fluxes and of the impact of nitrogen source (nature and amount) and of lipids. Furthermore, this study demonstrates that beyond the varietal origin of terpenes, the part resulting from the de novo synthesis by the yeast during the fermentation cannot be neglected in the context of cognac winemaking with high levels of turbidity.

Abstract
Currently, microbial manufacturing is widely used in various fields, such as food, medicine and energy, for its advantages of greenness and sustainable development. Process optimization is the committed step enabling the commercialization of microbial manufacturing products. However, the present optimization processes mainly rely on experience or trial-and-error method ignoring the intrinsic connection between cellular physiological requirement and production performance, so in many cases the productivity of microbial manufacturing could not been fully exploited at economically feasible cost. Recently, the rapid development of omics technologies facilitates the comprehensive analysis of microbial metabolism and fermentation performance from multi-levels of molecules, cells and microenvironment. The use of omics technologies makes the process optimization more explicit, boosting microbial manufacturing performance and bringing significant economic benefits and social value. In this paper, the traditional and omics technologies-guided process optimization of microbial manufacturing are systematically reviewed, and the future trend of process optimization is prospected.

Abstract
Saccharomyces non-cerevisiae yeasts are gaining momentum in wine fermentation due to their potential to reduce ethanol content and achieve attractive aroma profiles. However, the design of the fermentation process for new species requires intensive experimentation. The use of mechanistic models could automate process design, yet to date, most fermentation models have focused on primary metabolism. Therefore, these models do not provide insight into the production of secondary metabolites essential for wine quality, such as aromas. In this work, we formulate a continuous model that accounts for the physiological status of yeast, that is, exponential growth, growth under nitrogen starvation and transition to stationary or decay phases. To do so, we assumed that nitrogen starvation is associated with carbohydrate accumulation and the induction of a set of transcriptional changes associated with the stationary phase. The model accurately described the dynamics of time series data for biomass and primary and secondary metabolites obtained for various yeast species in single culture fermentations. We also used the proposed model to explore different process designs, showing how the addition of nitrogen could affect the aromatic profile of wine. This study underlines the potential of incorporating yeast physiology into batch fermentation modelling and provides a new means of automating process design.

Abstract
Among the different compounds present in the must, nitrogen is an essential nutrient for the management of fermentation kinetics, also playing a major role in the synthesis of fermentative aromas. Fermentation temperature is yet another variable that affects fermentation duration and the production of fermentative aromas in wine. The main objective of this study was thus to evaluate the combined effects of nitrogen addition-at the start of the fermentation process or during the stationary phase-at different fermentation temperatures on both fermentation kinetics and aroma synthesis kinetics. To study the impact of these three parameters simultaneously, we used an innovative transdisciplinary approach associating an online GC-MS system with an original modeling approach: a Box-Behnken experimental design combined with response surface modeling and GAM modeling. Our results indicated that all three factors studied had significant effects on fermentation and aroma production kinetics. These parameters did not impact in the same way the different families of volatile compounds. At first, obtained data showed that reduction of ester accumulation in the liquid phase at high temperature was mainly due to important losses by evaporation but also to modifications of yeast metabolic capabilities to synthetize these compounds. In a noticeable way, optimal temperature changed for liquid accumulation of the two classes of esters-23°C for acetate ester and 18°C for ethyl esters-because biological impact of temperature was different for the two chemical families. Moreover, the study of these three factors simultaneously allowed us to show that propanol is not only a marker of the presence of assimilable nitrogen in the medium but above all a marker of cellular activity. Finally, this work enabled us to gain a deeper understanding of yeast metabolism regulation. It also underlines the possibility to refine the organoleptic profile of a wine by targeting the ideal combination of fermentation temperature with initial and added nitrogen concentrations. Such observation was particularly true for isoamyl acetate for which interactions between the three factors were very strong.

Abstract
Nitrogen is a critical nutrient in beverage fermentations, influencing fermentation performance and formation of compounds that affect organoleptic properties of the product. Traditionally, most commercial wine fermentations rely on Saccharomyces cerevisiae but the potential of alternative yeasts is increasingly recognised because of the possibility to deliver innovative products and process improvements. In this regard, Saccharomyces uvarum is an attractive non-traditional yeast that, while quite closely related to S. cerevisiae, displays a different fermentative and aromatic profile. Although S. uvarum is used in cider-making and in some winemaking, better knowledge of its physiology and metabolism is required if its full potential is to be realised. To address this gap, we performed a comparative analysis of the response of S. uvarum and S. cerevisiae to 13 different sources of nitrogen, assessing key parameters such as growth, fermentation performance, the production of central carbon metabolites and aroma volatile compounds. We observed that the two species differ in the production of acetate, succinate, medium-chain fatty acids, phenylethanol, phenylethyl acetate, and fusel/branched acids in ways that reflect different distribution of fluxes in the metabolic network. The integrated analysis revealed different patterns of yeast performance and activity linked to whether growth was on amino acids metabolised via the Ehrlich pathway or on amino acids and compounds assimilated through the central nitrogen core. This study highlights differences between the two yeasts and the importance that nitrogen metabolism can play in modulating the sensory profile of wine when using S. uvarum as the fermentative yeast.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to evaluate how grape composition modifications linked to maturity level could affect the wine ester composition and aromatic expression. An experimental design has been developed from grapes of Vitis vinifera cv Merlot and cv Tempranillo. On each vine plot, grapes have been harvested at two maturity levels and have been fermented using a commercial yeast strain under standardized conditions, specifically after having the sugar and nitrogen concentrations adjusted to the same target values. Tempranillo wine ester content was not impacted by the maturity level, whereas Merlot wines from the highest maturity level showed lower concentrations for fatty acid ethyl esters and higher alcohol acetates but higher concentrations for substituted ethyl esters. Sensory analysis corroborated these analytical results: when Merlot maturity increased, wine fruity aromatic expression decreased (particularly its global intensity and the fresh, red-berry, and fermentative fruit characters). In addition, aromatic reconstitution experiments showed that esters were not, alone, responsible for the sensory differences linked to grapes' maturity. Globally, our results highlight the role of esters in the overall wine fruity aromatic expression associated to Merlot ripeness and show that their levels are impacted by other parameters than the grape content in sugars and amino acids, well known as being their precursors.

Chemical composition and bioactive compounds of cashew (Anacardium occidentale) apple juice and bagasse from Colombian varieties. Heliyon 2022; 8:e09528. [PMID: 35663750 PMCID: PMC9156865 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2022.e09528] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2021] [Revised: 02/20/2022] [Accepted: 05/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Cashew nut production generates large amounts of cashew apple as residue. In Colombia, cashew cultivation is increasing together with the concerns on residue management. The objective of this study was to provide the first chemical, physical and thermal decomposition characterization of cashew apple from Colombian varieties harvested in Vichada, Colombia. This characterization was focused to identify the important bioactive and natural compounds that can be further valorized in the formulation of food, nutraceuticals, and pharmacological products. The results obtained in this study are helpful to portray the cashew apple as a potential by-product due to its renewable nature and valuable composition, instead of seeing it just as an agricultural residue. For that, cashew apples of Regional 8315 and Mapiria varieties were studied. The natural juice (cashew apple juice) that was extracted from the cashew apples and the remanent solids (cashew apple bagasse) were separately analyzed. The HPLC analytical technique was used to determine the concentration of bioactive compounds, structural carbohydrates, and soluble sugars that constitute this biomass. Spectrophotometric techniques were used to determine the concentration of tannins, carotenoids, and total polyphenols. Mineral content and antioxidant activity (DPPH and ABTS assays) were determined in the biomass. Also, the thermal decomposition under an inert atmosphere or pyrolysis was performed on cashew apple bagasse. The varieties of cashew apple studied in this work showed similar content of bioactive compounds, total phenolic content, and structural carbohydrates. However, the Mapiria variety showed values slightly higher than the Regional 8315. Regarding cashew apple juice, it is rich in tannins and ascorbic acid with values of 191 mg/100 mL and 70 mg/100 mL, respectively, for Mapiria variety. Additionally, the principal reservoir of bioactive compounds and constitutive carbohydrates was the cashew apple bagasse. About 50 wt.% of it was composed of cellulose and hemicellulose. Also, in the bagasse, the ascorbic acid content was in a range of 180–200 mg/100 g, which is higher than other fruits and vegetables. Moreover, alkaloids were identified in cashew apples. The maximum value of antioxidant activity (DPPH assay: 405 TEs/g) was observed in the bagasse of Mapiria variety. The bagasse thermal decomposition started around 150 °C when the structural carbohydrates and other constitutive substances started to degrade. After thermogravimetric analysis, a remanent of 20% of the initial weight suggested the formation of a rich-carbon solid, which could correspond to biochar. Therefore, the cashew apple harvested in Vichada is a valuable reservoir of a wide range of biomolecules that potentially could be valorized into energy, foods, and pharmacologic applications. Nevertheless, future work is necessary to describe the complex compounds of this residual biomass that are still unknown.

Maturation of Moristel in Different Vineyards: Amino Acid and Aroma Composition of Mistelles and Wines with Particular Emphasis in Strecker Aldehydes. Foods 2022; 11:foods11070958.

Abstract
The aim of this article was to assess the influence of the harvest date on the composition of amino acids and derived aromatic compounds in grape-mistelle and wine of the Moristel variety, in different vineyards. Two vineyards were sampled in 2016 and another one in 2017. At each sampling point, grapes were collected, destemmed, crushed and divided into four aliquots. The first three were fermented, and the latter was treated with ethanol, to produce 1-week macerates containing 15% ethanol (v/v)-mistelles. Overall, 10 mistelles and 33 wines were produced. Amino acids, Strecker aldehydes and aroma compounds were analysed. Amino acid profiles are characteristic of the vineyard and level of ripeness, converging with maturation. In fermentation, major amino acids, except proline, are consumed at a relatively fixed and specific tax, while consumption of 13 amino acids is determined by the ratios of alanine, glutamic acid, serine and threonine, with γ-aminobutyric acid. After fermentation, amino acid precursors to Strecker aldehydes are maxima in unripe and overripe samples, while Strecker aldehydes are maxima in unripe wines. No direct correlations between precursor amino acids in mistelle and aromatic compounds in wine have been found. Nevertheless, must amino acid profiles could determine wine aroma composition.

Abstract
Among the different compounds present in the must, nitrogen is an essential nutrient for the management of fermentation kinetics but also plays an important role in the synthesis of fermentative aromas. To address the problems related to nitrogen deficiencies, nitrogen additions during alcoholic fermentation have been implemented. The consequences of such additions on the main reaction are well known. However, their impact on aromas synthesis is still poorly understood. So, the main objective of this study was to determine the impact of nitrogen addition during the stationary phase on both the fermentation kinetics and aroma synthesis. To reach this goal, we used a transdisciplinary approach combining statistical modeling (Box-Behnken design and response surface modeling) and gene expression study (transcriptomic analysis). Our results indicated that nitrogen metabolism, central carbon metabolism (CCM), fermentation kinetics and aroma production were significantly impacted by nitrogen addition. The most remarkable point was the different regulation of the bioconversion of higher alcohols into acetate esters on one hand and of fatty acids into ethyl esters on the other hand. We highlighted that the conversion of higher alcohols into acetate esters was maximum when nitrogen was added at the beginning of the stationary phase. Conversely, the highest conversion of acids into ethyl esters was reached when nitrogen was added close to the end of the stationary phase. Moreover, even if the key element in the production of these two ester families appeared to be the enzymatic activity responsible for their production, rather than the availability of the corresponding precursors, these enzymatic activities were differently regulated. For acetate esters, the regulation occurred at gene level: the ATF2 gene was overexpressed following nitrogen addition during the stationary phase. On the opposite, no induction of gene expression was noted for ethyl esters; it seemed that there was an allosteric regulation.

Abstract
Wine fermentation is an ancient biotechnological process mediated by different microorganisms such as yeast and bacteria. Understanding of the metabolic and physiological phenomena taking place during this process can be now attained at a genome scale with the help of metabolic models. In this chapter, we present a detailed protocol for modeling wine fermentation using genome-scale metabolic models. In particular, we illustrate how metabolic fluxes can be computed, optimized and interpreted, for both yeast and bacteria under winemaking conditions. We also show how nutritional requirements can be determined and simulated using these models in relevant test cases. This chapter introduces fundamental concepts and practical steps for applying flux balance analysis in wine fermentation, and as such, it is intended for a broad microbiology audience as well as for practitioners in the metabolic modeling field.

Abstract
Coculturing non-Saccharomyces yeasts with Saccharomyces cerevisiae could enrich the aromatic complexity of alcoholic beverages during cider brewing. Therefore, the present study performed rapid strain screening via selective culture medium and aroma analysis and adopted a response surface methodology to optimize fermentation conditions to produce 2-phenylethyl acetate (PEA), which presents a rose and honey scent. The effects of coculturing yeasts on cider quality were evaluated through hedonic sensory analysis and the check-all-that-apply (CATA) method. Hanseniaspora vineae P5 and S. cerevisiae P1 produced ciders with high levels of PEA and 2-phenylethanol, respectively. The optimal fermentation process consisted of sequential inoculation with a 31 h delay between inoculations, followed by fermentation for 14.5 d at 18.7 °C, yielding 17.41 ± 0.51 mg/L of PEA, which was 4.6-fold higher than that obtained through the unoptimized fermentation process. Additionally, the CATA results revealed that the cider produced through coculturing was associated with descriptors such as “smooth taste”, “honey”, “pineapple”, and “fruity”, which can be attributed to the high ethyl acetate and PEA levels in the cider.

Abstract
Organic nitrogen plays a significant role in the fermentation performance and production of esters and higher alcohols. This study assessed the use of yeast protein hydrolysate (YPH) as a nitrogen source for grape must fermentation. In this study, we prepared an enzymatic protein hydrolysate using yeasts recovered from a previous fermentation of wine. Three treatments were performed. DAP supplementation was used as a control, while two YPH treatments were used. Low (LDH) and high degrees of hydrolysis (HDH), 3.5% and 10%, respectively, were chosen. Gas chromatography and principal component analysis indicated a significant positive influence of YPH-supplementations on the production of esters and higher alcohols. Significantly high concentrations of 3-methyl-1-penthanol, isoamyl alcohol, isobutanol, and 2-phenylethanol were observed. Significant odorant activity was obtained for 3-methyl-1-pentanol and ethyl-2-hexenoate. The use of YPH as nitrogen supplementation is justified as a recycling yeasts technique by the increase in volatile compounds.

Abstract
Row orientation, among others, is a crucial factor in determining grapevine performance and health status, thus affecting berry components that form the basis of the later wine profile. However, the literature about the impact of changes in row orientation at steep slope sites on grapevine fruit composition as well as the differentiation between canopy sides hardly exists. Thus, the aim of this work was to gain knowledge about the impact of row orientation in steep slope vineyards on selected primary and secondary metabolites in berries of Vitis vinifera L. cv. Riesling. Samples were taken from both canopy sides of different row orientations of terraced and downslope vineyards in steep slopes. Free amino acids in the juice and flavonols in the berry skin had a positive correlation to sunlight exposure. Furthermore, grapevines showed adaptations to constantly higher light conditions, e.g., physiologically in reduction in chlorophyll content or protective mechanisms resulting in a lower susceptibility to sunburn damage. Thus, grapevine fruit parameters are affected by row orientation change in steep slopes.

Abstract
Hydroxytyrosol (HT) is one of the most powerful dietary antioxidants with numerous applications in different areas, including cosmetics, nutraceuticals and food. In the present work, heterologous hydroxylase complex HpaBC from Escherichia coli was integrated into the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome in multiple copies. HT productivity was increased by redirecting the metabolic flux towards tyrosol synthesis to avoid exogenous tyrosol or tyrosine supplementation. After evaluating the potential of our selected strain as an HT producer from glucose, we adjusted the medium composition for HT production. The combination of the selected modifications in our engineered strain, combined with culture conditions optimization, resulted in a titre of approximately 375 mg l−1 of HT obtained from shake‐flask fermentation using a minimal synthetic‐defined medium with 160 g l−1 glucose as the sole carbon source. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest HT concentration produced by an engineered S. cerevisiae strain.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to enhance the levels of fruity esters in spine grape (Vitis davidii Foёx) wine by goal-directed amino acid supplementation during fermentation. HPLC and GC-MS monitored the amino acids and fruity esters, respectively, during alcoholic fermentation of spine grape and Cabernet Sauvignon grape. HPLC was also used to determine the extracellular metabolites and precursors involved in the synthesis of fruity esters. Alanine, phenylalanine, and isoleucine levels in spine grape were less than those in Cabernet Sauvignon. Pearson correlation between amino acid profile and fruity ester content in the two systems indicated that deficiencies in alanine, phenylalanine, and isoleucine levels might have limited fruity ester production in spine grape wine. Supplementation of these three amino acids based on their levels in Cabernet Sauvignon significantly increased fruity ester content in spine grape wine. Interestingly, goal-directed amino acid supplementation might have led to changes in the distribution of carbon fluxes, which contributed to the increase in fruity ester production.

Abstract
Genetic background and environmental conditions affect the production of sensory impact compounds by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The relative importance of the strain-specific metabolic capabilities for the production of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) remains unclear. We investigated which amino acids contribute to VOC production and whether amino acid-VOC relations are conserved among yeast strains. Amino acid consumption and production of VOCs during grape juice fermentation was investigated using four commercial wine yeast strains: Elixir, Opale, R2, and Uvaferm. Principal component analysis of the VOC data demonstrated that Uvaferm correlated with ethyl acetate and ethyl hexanoate production, R2 negatively correlated with the acetate esters, and Opale positively correlated with fusel alcohols. Biomass formation was similar for all strains, pointing to metabolic differences in the utilization of nutrients to form VOCs. Partial least-squares linear regression showed that total aroma production is a function of nitrogen utilization (R2 = 0.87). We found that glycine, tyrosine, leucine, and lysine utilization were positively correlated with fusel alcohols and acetate esters. Mechanistic modeling of the yeast metabolic network via parsimonious flux balance analysis and flux enrichment analysis revealed enzymes with crucial roles, such as transaminases and decarboxylases. Our work provides insights in VOC production in wine yeasts. IMPORTANCE Saccharomyces cerevisiae is widely used in grape juice fermentation to produce wines. Along with the genetic background, the nitrogen in the environment in which S. cerevisiae grows impacts its regulation of metabolism. Also, commercial S. cerevisiae strains exhibit immense diversity in their formation of aromas, and a desirable aroma bouquet is an essential characteristic for wines. Since nitrogen affects aroma formation in wines, it is essential to know the extent of this connection and how it leads to strain-dependent aroma profiles in wines. We evaluated the differences in the production of key aroma compounds among four commercial wine strains. Moreover, we analyzed the role of nitrogen utilization on the formation of various aroma compounds. This work illustrates the unique aroma-producing differences among industrial yeast strains and suggests more intricate, nitrogen-associated routes influencing those aroma-producing differences.

Abstract
Yeasts constitute over 1,500 species with great potential for biotechnology. Still, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae dominates industrial applications, and many alternative physiological capabilities of lesser-known yeasts are not being fully exploited. While comparative genomics receives substantial attention, little is known about yeasts’ metabolic specificity in batch cultures. Here, we propose a multiphase multiobjective dynamic genome-scale model of yeast batch cultures that describes the uptake of carbon and nitrogen sources and the production of primary and secondary metabolites. The model integrates a specific metabolic reconstruction, based on the consensus Yeast8, and a kinetic model describing the time-varying culture environment. In addition, we proposed a multiphase multiobjective flux balance analysis to compute the dynamics of intracellular fluxes. We then compared the metabolism of S. cerevisiae and Saccharomyces uvarum strains in a rich medium fermentation. The model successfully explained the experimental data and brought novel insights into how cryotolerant strains achieve redox balance. The proposed model (along with the corresponding code) provides a comprehensive picture of the main steps occurring inside the cell during batch cultures and offers a systematic approach to prospect or metabolically engineering novel yeast cell factories. IMPORTANCE Nonconventional yeast species hold the promise to provide novel metabolic routes to produce industrially relevant compounds and tolerate specific stressors, such as cold temperatures. This work validated the first multiphase multiobjective genome-scale dynamic model to describe carbon and nitrogen metabolism throughout batch fermentation. To test and illustrate its performance, we considered the comparative metabolism of three yeast strains of the Saccharomyces genus in rich medium fermentation. The study revealed that cryotolerant Saccharomyces species might use the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) shunt and the production of reducing equivalents as alternative routes to achieve redox balance, a novel biological insight worth being explored further. The proposed model (along with the provided code) can be applied to a wide range of batch processes started with different yeast species and media, offering a systematic and rational approach to prospect nonconventional yeast species metabolism and engineering novel cell factories.

[PMID: 33741633 PMCID: PMC8208162 DOI: 10.1128/aem.00036-21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2021] [Accepted: 03/15/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
This study characterized Saccharomyces cerevisiae RC212 gene expression during Pinot noir fermentation at pilot scale (150 liters) using industry-relevant conditions. The reported gene expression patterns of RC212 are generally similar to those observed under laboratory fermentation conditions but also contain gene expression signatures related to yeast-environment interactions found in a production setting (e.g., the presence of non-Saccharomyces microorganisms). Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolism produces ethanol and other compounds during the fermentation of grape must into wine. Thousands of genes change expression over the course of a wine fermentation, allowing S. cerevisiae to adapt to and dominate the fermentation environment. Investigations into these gene expression patterns previously revealed genes that underlie cellular adaptation to the grape must and wine environments, involving metabolic specialization and ethanol tolerance. However, the majority of studies detailing gene expression patterns have occurred in controlled environments that may not recapitulate the biological and chemical complexity of fermentations performed at production scale. Here, an analysis of the S. cerevisiae RC212 gene expression program is presented, drawing from 40 pilot-scale fermentations (150 liters) using Pinot noir grapes from 10 California vineyards across two vintages. A core gene expression program was observed across all fermentations irrespective of vintage, similar to that of laboratory fermentations, in addition to novel gene expression patterns likely related to the presence of non-Saccharomyces microorganisms and oxygen availability during fermentation. These gene expression patterns, both common and diverse, provide insight into Saccharomyces cerevisiae biology critical to fermentation outcomes under industry-relevant conditions. IMPORTANCE This study characterized Saccharomyces cerevisiae RC212 gene expression during Pinot noir fermentation at pilot scale (150 liters) using industry-relevant conditions. The reported gene expression patterns of RC212 are generally similar to those observed under laboratory fermentation conditions but also contain gene expression signatures related to yeast-environment interactions found in a production setting (e.g., the presence of non-Saccharomyces microorganisms). Key genes and pathways highlighted by this work remain undercharacterized, indicating the need for further research to understand the roles of these genes and their impact on industrial wine fermentation outcomes.

Abstract
Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a widespread yeast present both in the wild and in fermentative processes, like winemaking. During the colonization of these human-associated fermentative environments, certain strains of S. cerevisiae acquired differential adaptive traits that enhanced their physiological properties to cope with the challenges imposed by these new ecological niches. The advent of omics technologies allowed unveiling some details of the molecular bases responsible for the peculiar traits of S. cerevisiae wine strains. However, the metabolic diversity within yeasts remained poorly explored, in particular that existing between wine and wild strains of S. cerevisiae. For this purpose, we performed a dual transcriptomic and metabolomic comparative analysis between a wild and a wine S. cerevisiae strains during wine fermentations performed at high and low temperatures. By using this approach, we could correlate the differential expression of genes involved in metabolic pathways, such as sulfur, arginine and thiamine metabolisms, with differences in the amounts of key metabolites that can explain some important differences in the fermentation performance between the wine and wild strains.

Abstract
A collection of 33 Saccharomyces yeasts were used for wine fermentation with a sole nitrogen source: ammonium and four individual aroma-inducing amino acids. The fermentation performance and chemical wine composition were evaluated. The most valuable nitrogen sources were valine as a fermentation promoter on non-cerevisiae strains, phenylalanine as fruity aromas enhancer whereas the ethanol yield was lessened by leucine and isoleucine. S. cerevisiae SC03 and S. kudriavzevii SK02 strains showed to be the greatest producers of fruity ethyl esters while S. kudriavzevii strains SK06 and SK07 by shortening the fermentation duration. S. uvarum strains produced the greatest succinic acid amounts and, together with S. eubayanus, they reached the highest production of 2-phenylethanol and its acetate ester; whereas S. kudriavzevii strains were found to be positively related to high glycerol production.

Influence of single nitrogen compounds on growth and fermentation performance of Starmerella bacillaris and Saccharomyces cerevisiae during alcoholic fermentation.

Abstract
Nitrogen is among the essential nutriments that govern interactions between yeast species in the wine environment. A thorough knowledge of how these yeasts assimilate the nitrogen compounds of grape juice is an important prerequisite for a successful co- or sequential fermentation. In the present study, we investigated the efficiency of 18 nitrogen sources for sustaining the growth and fermentation of two Starm. bacillaris strains displaying metabolic properties, compared to the reference yeast S. cerevisiae The analysis of growth and fermentation parameters provided a comprehensive picture of Starm. bacillaris preferences with respect to nitrogen sources for sustained growth and fermentation. Important differences were observed in S. cerevisiae regarding rates, final population and CO2 production. In particular, Lys and His supported substantial Starm. bacillaris growth and fermentation contrary to S. cerevisiae, while only 3 nitrogen sources, Arg, NH4+ and Ser, promoted S. cerevisiae growth more efficiently than that of Starm. bacillaris strains. Furthermore, Starm. bacillaris strains displayed a higher fermentative activity than S. cerevisiae during the first phase of culture with Gly or Thr, when the former species consumed solely fructose. Finally, no correlation has been shown between the ability of nitrogen sources to support growth and their fermentation efficiency. The specificities of Starm. bacillaris regarding nitrogen sources preferences are related to its genetic background, but further investigations are needed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms involved. These data are essential elements to be taken into account in order to make the best use of the potential of the two species.IMPORTANCE Mixed fermentations combining non-Saccharomyces and S. cerevisiae strains are increasingly implemented in the wine sector as they offer promising opportunities to diversify the flavour profile of end-products. However, competition for nutrients between species can cause fermentation problems, which is a severe hindrance to the development of these approaches. With the knowledge provided in this study on the nitrogen preferences of Starm. bacillaris, winemakers will be able to set up a nitrogen nutrition scheme adapted to the requirement of each species during mixed fermentation, through must supplementation with relevant nitrogen compounds. This will prevent nitrogen depletion or competition between yeasts for nitrogen sources, and consequently potential issues during fermentation. The data of this study highlight the importance of an appropriate nitrogen resource management during co- or sequential fermentation for fully exploiting the phenotypic potential of non-Saccharomyces yeasts.

Abstract
The outcome of co- or sequential inoculation of Lachancea thermotolerans in winemaking remains unpredictable due to a lack of integrated data regarding the impact of grape juice composition on L. thermotolerans fermentation behaviour. Here, we investigate the impact of nitrogen composition on fermentation characteristics and aroma compound production in grape juice sequentially inoculated with commercial L. thermotolerans and S. cerevisiae strains. Subsequently, all treatments were subjected to malolactic fermentation (MLF) using two commercial strains of Oenococcus oeni. Addition of amino acids led to faster growth for S. cerevisiae fermentations, compared to the nitrogen-equivalent addition of diammonium phosphate (DAP). L. thermotolerans persistence in the mixed fermentations was significantly higher following DAP addition, with higher glycerol and lactic acid production. Interestingly, the lower total Nitrogen content in DAP-treated musts compared to other treatments did not alter the subsequent growth of S. cerevisiae. MLF was more similar between musts fermented with L. thermotolerans, regardless of nutrient regime, whereas significant differences in MLF completion times were observed for different nitrogen treatments in S. cerevisiae fermentations. Collectively, the data present an integrated view of the impact of nitrogen treatment on multispecies co-inoculation (growth kinetics and aromatic outcomes) and the downstream impact on MLF.

Modulating Wine Aromatic Amino Acid Catabolites by Using Torulaspora delbrueckii in Sequentially Inoculated Fermentations or Saccharomyces cerevisiae Alone. Microorganisms 2020; 8:microorganisms8091349.

Abstract
Yeasts are the key microorganisms that transform grape juice into wine, and nitrogen is an essential nutrient able to affect yeast cell growth, fermentation kinetics and wine quality. In this work, we focused on the intra- and extracellular metabolomic changes of three aromatic amino acids (tryptophan, tyrosine, and phenylalanine) during alcoholic fermentation of two grape musts by two Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains and the sequential inoculation of Torulaspora delbrueckii with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. An UPLC-MS/MS method was used to monitor 33 metabolites, and 26 of them were detected in the extracellular samples and 8 were detected in the intracellular ones. The results indicate that the most intensive metabolomic changes occurred during the logarithm cellular growth phase and that pure S. cerevisiae fermentations produced higher amounts of N-acetyl derivatives of tryptophan and tyrosine and the off-odour molecule 2-aminoacetophenone. The sequentially inoculated fermentations showed a slower evolution and a higher production of metabolites linked to the well-known plant hormone indole acetic acid (auxin). Finally, the production of sulfonated tryptophol during must fermentation was confirmed, which also may explain the bitter taste of wines produced by Torulaspora delbrueckii co-fermentations, while sulfonated indole carboxylic acid was detected for the first time in such an experimental design.

Generation of a Non-Transgenic Genetically Improved Yeast Strain for Wine Production from Nitrogen-Deficient Musts. Microorganisms 2020; 8:microorganisms8081194.

Abstract
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the main species responsible for the process that involves the transformation of grape must into wine, with the initial nitrogen in the grape must being vital for it. One of the main problems in the wine industry is the deficiency of nitrogen sources in the grape must, leading to stuck or sluggish fermentations, and generating economic losses. In this scenario, an alternative is the isolation or generation of yeast strains with low nitrogen requirements for fermentation. In the present study, we carry out a genetic improvement program using as a base population a group of 70 strains isolated from winemaking environments mainly in Chile and Argentina (F0), making from it a first and second filial generation (F1 and F2, respectively) based in different families and hybrids. It was found that the trait under study has a high heritability, obtaining in the F2 population strains that consume a minor proportion of the nitrogen sources present in the must. Among these improved strains, strain "686" specially showed a marked drop in the nitrogen consumption, without losing fermentative performance, in synthetic grape must at laboratory level. When using this improved strain to produce wine from a natural grape must (supplemented and non-supplemented with ammonium) at pilot scale under wine cellar conditions, a similar fermentative capacity was obtained between this strain and a widely used commercial strain (EC1118). However, when fermented in a non-supplemented must, improved strain "686" showed the presence of a marked floral aroma absent for EC1118 strain, this difference being probably a direct consequence of its different pattern in amino acid consumption. The combination of the capacity of improved strain "686" to ferment without nitrogen addition and produce floral aromas may be of commercial interest for the wine industry.

Abstract
In this work, we focused on the effect of the initial content of SO2 in synthetic grape juice on yeast metabolism linked to the production of acetaldehyde. Lengthening of the lag phase duration was observed with an increase in the initial SO2 content. Nevertheless, an interesting finding was a threshold value of an initial SO2 content of 30 mg L-1 in the juice led to equilibrium between intracellular SO2 diffusion and SO2 production from the sulfate pool by yeast. The ratios of free and bound acetaldehydes were measured during fermentation, and the maximum accumulation of free acetaldehyde was observed when SO2 concentration equilibrium between diffusion and production was reached in the fermenting juice. Moreover, it was observed that SO2 addition resulted in significant changes in the synthesis of aroma compounds. Production of volatile molecules related to sulfur metabolism (methionol) was changed. But, more surprisingly, synthesis of some volatile carbon compounds (diacetyl, isoamyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol, phenyl ethanol and their corresponding esters) was also altered because of major disruptions in the NADPH/NADP+ redox equilibrium. Finally, we demonstrated that acetaldehyde bound to SO2 could not be metabolized by the yeast during the time course of fermentation and that only free acetaldehyde could impact metabolism.

Abstract
Non-Saccharomyces yeast strains have become increasingly prevalent in the food industry, particularly in winemaking, because of their properties of interest both in biological control and in complexifying flavour profiles in end-products. However, unleashing the full potential of these species would require solid knowledge of their physiology and metabolism, which is, however, very limited to date. In this study, a quantitative analysis using 15N-labelled NH4Cl, arginine, and glutamine, and 13C-labelled leucine and valine revealed the specificities of the nitrogen metabolism pattern of two non-Saccharomyces species, Torulaspora delbrueckii and Metschnikowia pulcherrima. In T. delbrueckii, consumed nitrogen sources were mainly directed towards the de novo synthesis of proteinogenic amino acids, at the expense of volatile compounds production. This redistribution pattern was in line with the high biomass-producer phenotype of this species. Conversely, in M. pulcherrima, which displayed weaker growth capacities, a larger proportion of consumed amino acids was catabolised for the production of higher alcohols through the Ehrlich pathway. Overall, this comprehensive overview of nitrogen redistribution in T. delbrueckii and M. pulcherrima provides valuable information for a better management of co- or sequential fermentation combining these species with Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Abstract
The TORC1 pathway coordinates cell growth in response to nitrogen availability present in the medium, regulating genes related to nitrogen transport and metabolism. Therefore, the adaptation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to changes in nitrogen availability implies variations in the activity of this signaling pathway. In this sense, variations in nitrogen detection and signaling pathway are one of the main causes of differences in nitrogen assimilation during alcoholic fermentation. Previously, we demonstrated that allelic variants in the GTR1 gene underlying differences in ammonium and amino acids consumption between Wine/European (WE) and West African (WA) strains impact the expression of nitrogen transporters. The GTR1 gene encodes a GTPase that participates in the EGO complex responsible for TORC1 activation in response to amino acids availability. In this work, we assessed the role of the GTR1 gene on nitrogen consumption under fermentation conditions, using a high sugar concentration medium with nitrogen limitation and in the context of the WE and WA genetic backgrounds. The gtr1Δ mutant presented a reduced TORC1 activity and increased expression levels of nitrogen transporters, which in turn favored ammonium consumption, but decreased amino acid assimilation. Furthermore, to identify the SNPs responsible for differences in nitrogen consumption during alcoholic fermentation, we studied the polymorphisms present in the GTR1 gene. We carried out swapping experiments for the promoter and coding regions of GTR1 between the WE and WA strains. We observed that polymorphisms in the coding region of the WA GTR1 gene are relevant for TORC1 activity. Altogether, our results highlight the role of the GTR1 gene on nitrogen consumption in S. cerevisiae under fermentation conditions.

Abstract
Even though non-Saccharomyces yeasts were regarded as spoilage microorganisms for a long time, their abilities to improve and diversify the aromatic profile of wines are now well recognized. Consequently, their use in combination with S. cerevisiae strains during winemaking has attracted substantial attention over the last decade. However, our limited understanding of the metabolism and physiology of these species remains a barrier to promoting efficient exploitation of their full potential. In this study, we further explored the metabolism involved in the production of fermentative volatile compounds of two commercial non-Saccharomyces strains, T. delbrueckii Biodiva™ and M. pulcherrima Flavia®, in comparison with the reference wine yeast S. cerevisiae Lalvin EC1118®. After growing these strains in the presence of 24 different N-compounds, particular attention was paid to the influence of the nitrogen source on the profile of aroma compounds synthesized by these yeasts (higher alcohols and acids, medium-chain fatty acids and their acetate or ethyl esters derivatives). A comprehensive analysis of the dataset showed that these three species were able to produce all the fermentative aromas, regardless of the nitrogen source, demonstrating the key contribution of the central carbon metabolism to the formation of volatile molecules. Nevertheless, we also observed some specific phenotypic traits for each of the strains in their assimilation capacities for the various nitrogen nutrients as well as in their response to the nature of the nitrogen source in terms of the production of volatile molecules. These observations revealed the intricacy and interconnection between the networks involved in nitrogen consumption and aroma production. These differences are likely related to the genetic backgrounds of the strains. Overall, this study expands our understanding of the metabolic processes responsible for the formation of volatile compounds during wine fermentation and their variations according to species and the nature of the nitrogen source. This knowledge provides a new platform for the more efficient exploitation of non-Saccharomyces strains during winemaking, improving the management of the fermentation.

Abstract
Yeasts have a long-standing relationship with humankind that has widened in recent years to encompass production of diverse foods, beverages, fuels and medicines. Here, key advances in the field of yeast fermentation applied to alcohol production, which represents the predominant product of industrial biotechnology, will be presented. More specifically, we have selected industries focused in producing bioethanol, beer and wine. In these bioprocesses, yeasts from the genus Saccharomyces are still the main players, with Saccharomyces cerevisiae recognized as the preeminent industrial ethanologen. However, the growing demand for new products has opened the door to diverse yeasts, including non-Saccharomyces strains. Furthermore, the development of synthetic media that successfully simulate industrial fermentation medium will be discussed along with a general overview of yeast fermentation modeling.

Abstract
In the alcoholic fermentation process, Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains present differences in their nitrogen consumption profiles, these phenotypic outcomes have complex genetic and molecular architectures. In this sense, variations in nitrogen signaling pathways regulated by TORC1 represent one of the main sources of phenotypic diversity in nitrogen consumption. This emphasizes the possible roles that allelic variants from the TORC1 pathway have in the nitrogen consumption differences observed in yeast during the alcoholic fermentation. Here, we studied the allelic diversity in the TORC1 pathway across four yeast strains and determined how these polymorphisms directly impact nitrogen consumption during alcoholic fermentation. Using a reciprocal hemizygosity approach combined with phenotyping under fermentative conditions, we found that allelic variants of GTR1, TOR2, SIT4, SAP185, EAP1, NPR1 and SCH9 underlie differences in the ammonium and amino acids consumption phenotypes. Among these, GTR1 alleles from the Wine/European and West African genetic backgrounds showed the greatest effects on ammonium and amino acid consumption, respectively. Furthermore, we identified allelic variants of SAP185, TOR2, SCH9 and NPR1 from an oak isolate that increased the amino acid consumption preference over ammonium; representing putative candidates coming from a non-domesticated strain that could be used for genetic improvement programs. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that a large number of allelic variants within the TORC1 pathway significantly impacts on regulatory mechanisms of nitrogen assimilation during alcoholic fermentation.

Abstract
Nitrogen is an essential nutrient for yeast during alcoholic fermentation. Nitrogen is involved in the biosynthesis of protein, amino acids, nucleotides, and other metabolites, including volatile compounds. However, recent studies have called several mechanisms that regulate its role in biosynthesis into question. An initial focus on S. cerevisiae has highlighted that the concept of "preferred" versus "non-preferred" nitrogen sources is extremely variable and strain-dependent. Then, the direct involvement of amino acids consumed in the formation of proteins and volatile compounds has recently been reevaluated. Indeed, studies have highlighted the key role of lipids in nitrogen regulation in S. cerevisiae and their involvement in the mechanism of cell death. New winemaking strategies using non-Saccharomyces yeast strains in co- or sequential fermentation improve nitrogen management. Indeed, recent studies show that non-Saccharomyces yeasts have significant and specific needs for nitrogen. Moreover, sluggish fermentation can occur when they are associated with S. cerevisiae, necessitating nitrogen addition. In this context, we will present the consequences of nitrogen addition, discussing the sources, time of addition, transcriptome changes, and effect on volatile compound composition.

Abstract
The sequential inoculation of non-Saccharomyces yeasts and Saccharomyces cerevisiae in grape juice is becoming an increasingly popular practice to diversify wine styles and/or to obtain more complex wines with a peculiar microbial footprint. One of the main interactions is competition for nutrients, especially nitrogen sources, that directly impacts not only fermentation performance but also the production of aroma compounds. In order to better understand the interactions taking place between non-Saccharomyces yeasts and S. cerevisiae during alcoholic fermentation, sequential inoculations of three yeast species (Pichia burtonii, Kluyveromyces marxianus, Zygoascus meyerae) with S. cerevisiae were performed individually in a synthetic medium. Different species-dependent interactions were evidenced. Indeed, the three sequential inoculations resulted in three different behaviors in terms of growth. P. burtonii and Z. meyerae declined after the inoculation of S. cerevisiae which promptly outcompeted the other two species. However, while the presence of P. burtonii did not impact the fermentation kinetics of S. cerevisiae, that of Z. meyerae rendered the overall kinetics very slow and with no clear exponential phase. K. marxianus and S. cerevisiae both declined and became undetectable before fermentation completion. The results also demonstrated that yeasts differed in their preference for nitrogen sources. Unlike Z. meyerae and P. burtonii, K. marxianus appeared to be a competitor for S. cerevisiae (as evidenced by the uptake of ammonium and amino acids), thereby explaining the resulting stuck fermentation. Nevertheless, the results suggested that competition for other nutrients (probably vitamins) occurred during the sequential inoculation of Z. meyerae with S. cerevisiae. The metabolic footprint of the non-Saccharomyces yeasts determined after 48 h of fermentation remained until the end of fermentation and combined with that of S. cerevisiae. For instance, fermentations performed with K. marxianus were characterized by the formation of phenylethanol and phenylethyl acetate, while those performed with P. burtonii or Z. meyerae displayed higher production of isoamyl alcohol and ethyl esters. When considering sequential inoculation of yeasts, the nutritional requirements of the yeasts used should be carefully considered and adjusted accordingly. Finally, our chemical data suggests that the organoleptic properties of the wine are altered in a species specific manner.

Abstract
Nitrogen availability and utilization by Saccharomyces cerevisiae significantly influence fermentation kinetics and the production of volatile compounds important for wine aroma. Amino acids are the most important nitrogen source and have been classified based on how well they support growth. This study evaluated the effect of single amino acids on growth kinetics and major volatile production of two phenotypically different commercial wine yeast strains in synthetic grape must. Four growth parameters, lag phase, maximum growth rate, total biomass formation and time to complete fermentation were evaluated. In contrast with previous findings, in fermentative conditions, phenylalanine and valine supported growth well and asparagine supported it poorly. The four parameters showed good correlations for most amino acid treatments, with some notable exceptions. Single amino acid treatments resulted in the predictable production of aromatic compounds, with a linear correlation between amino acid concentration and the concentration of aromatic compounds that are directly derived from these amino acids. With the increased complexity of nitrogen sources, linear correlations were lost and aroma production became unpredictable. However, even in complex medium minor changes in amino acid concentration continued to directly impact the formation of aromatic compounds, suggesting that the relative concentration of individual amino acids remains a predictor of aromatic outputs, independently of the complexity of metabolic interactions between carbon and nitrogen metabolism and between amino acid degradation and utilization pathways.

Abstract
Carbon metabolism of Crabtree-negative yeast Pichia pastoris was profiled using 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to delineate regulation during exponential growth and to study the import of two precursors for branched-chain amino acid biosynthesis, α-ketoisovalerate and α-ketobutyrate. Cells were grown in aerobic batch cultures containing (a) only glucose, (b) glucose along with the precursors, or (c) glucose and Val. The study provided the following new insights. First, 13 C flux ratio analyses of central metabolism reveal an unexpectedly high anaplerotic supply of the tricarboxylic acid cycle for a Crabtree-negative yeast, and show that a substantial fraction of glucose catabolism proceeds through the pentose phosphate pathway. A comparison with previous flux ratio analyses for batch cultures of Crabtree-negative Pichia stipitis and Crabtree-positive Saccharomyces cerevisiae indicate that the overall regulation of central carbon metabolism in P. pastoris is intermediate in between P. stipitis and S. cerevisiae. Second, excess α-ketoisovalerate in the medium is not transported into the cytoplasm indicating that P. pastoris lacks a suitable transporter. In contrast, excess Val is efficiently taken up and largely fulfills demands for both Val and Leu for protein synthesis. Third, excess α-ketobutyrate is transported into the mitochondria for Ile biosynthesis. However, the import does not efficiently inhibit the synthesis of α-ketobutyrate from pyruvate indicating that P. pastoris has not been optimized evolutionarily to take full advantage of this carbon source. These findings have direct implications for preparing uniformly 2 H,13 C,15 N-labeled proteins containing protonated Ile, Val, and Leu methyl groups in P. pastoris for NMR-based structural biology.

Abstract
Nitrogen and lipids are key nutrients of grape must that influence the production of fermentative aromas by wine yeast, and we have previously shown that a strong interaction exists between these two nutrients. However, more than 90% of the acids and higher alcohols (and their acetate ester derivatives) were derived from intermediates produced by the carbon central metabolism (CCM). The objective of this study was to determine how variations in nitrogen and lipid resources can modulate the contribution of nitrogen and carbon metabolisms for the production of fermentative aromas. A quantitative analysis of metabolism using 13C‐labelled leucine and valine showed that nitrogen availability affected the part of the catabolism of N‐containing compounds, the formation of α‐ketoacids from CCM and the redistribution of fluxes around these precursors, explaining the optimum production of higher alcohols occurring at an intermediate nitrogen content. Moreover, nitrogen content modulated the total production of acids and higher alcohols differently, through variations in the redox state of cells. We also demonstrated that the phytosterol content, modifying the intracellular availability of acetyl‐CoA, can influence the flux distribution, especially the formation of higher alcohols and the conversion of α‐ketoisovalerate to α‐ketoisocaproate.
