Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of microbial fermentation, and particularly relates to Pseudomonas fluorescens Aw10 and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The wine starter culture brewing wine is a brewing technology invented by China. The starter culture is a saccharification and fermentation agent for liquor brewing, and is referred to as the bone of liquor. High-quality starter culture is an important prerequisite for producing high-quality liquor. High-temperature starter culture, medium-temperature starter culture and low-temperature starter culture refer to starter culture with a bacteria cultivation temperature greater than 60 DEG C, between 50 DEG C and 60 DEG C and less than 50 DEG C, respectively. The bacteria in the finished product of high-temperature starter culture are dominant because of the excessively high bacteria cultivation temperature, and these bacteria are mostly Bacillus. The bacteria cultivation temperature of low-temperature starter culture is relatively low, so the microorganism species are relatively more, and include various yeast, mold and bacteria. The medium-temperature starter culture is mostly brick-shaped, and is suitable for the growth of saccharification bacteria because most raw materials are starch raw materials.

[0003] Ferulic acid is an important phenolic acid substance existing in plants. In cereals, most of the ferulic acid is connected with arabinoxylan by ester bond in addition to a small amount of free form, and has strong antioxidant activity and preservative effect, and is widely used in medicine, pesticide, health care product, cosmetic raw material and food additive and the like. Ferulic acid not only can quench free radicals, but also can regulate human physiological functions, inhibit enzymes producing free radicals and promote enzymes clearing free radicals. Ferulic acid and its derivatives have biological activities such as anti-blood, reducing blood fat, anti-inflammatory and anticancer. Ferulic acid is safe and non-toxic, and is easy to be metabolized by human body, and can be applied to the food industry as an antioxidant, function promoting substance and preservative. Japan and other countries have approved it as a food additive.

[0004] Ferulic acid esterase, also known as cinnamic acid esterase, is a sub-class of carboxylic acid esterases, and can catalyze the hydrolysis of cross-linking structures between ferulic acid and lignin, polysaccharide, cellulose and the like to obtain free phenolic acid substances such as ferulic acid and ferulic acid dimer. Ferulic acid esterase can catalyze the hydrolysis of ester bonds between ferulic acid and polysaccharide in plant cell walls to release free phenolic acid substances such as ferulic acid and ferulic acid dimer. Ferulic acid esterase causes the destruction of the complex network structure of plant cell walls, so that other hydrolytic enzymes can more easily approach the active center of the substrate, thereby improving the degradation efficiency of plant cell walls. Ferulic acid esterase has wide application value in many fields such as food, feed, medicine, papermaking and textile, and its application in liquor starter culture production can improve the degradation efficiency of raw material cell walls in the starter culture, so that the microbial conversion reaction in the starter culture is more thorough.

[0005] At present, the patent of the comparative file (CN110066757B) discloses a kind of pseudomonas that can produce ferulic acid esterase from wheat koji, and is applied to the brewing of yellow rice wine by preparing reinforced wheat koji.The comparative file (CN113308424A) discloses that the short bacillus ferulic acid esterase-producing bacteria can produce ferulic acid esterase, and the enzyme activity can still reach more than 80% at 45-60 DEG C.However, the above prior art does not mention whether the strain is still suitable for growth and aroma production during the process of liquor brewing, and neither does it mention the flavor produced by the strain under solid-state conditions, nor does it mention the optimization and application of the ferulic acid esterase-producing strain during the process of liquor brewing.

[0067] Example 2

[0068] Molecular biology identification

[0069] I) Identification: morphological observation and identification preliminary judgment as gram-negative short rod-shaped bacteria, 16S rDNA molecular biology identification sequencing results and NCBI database were compared by BLAST, and MEGA-X software was used to construct phylogenetic tree based on Neighbor-Joining algorithm, and the strain was determined as Pseudomonas fluorescens Aw10 and named as Pseudomonas fluorescens Aw10, see Figure 3 .

[0070] II) Growth curve of Aw10

[0071] During the process of shake flask culture, the seed liquid was taken every 2h to measure OD 600nm value. The test results showed that the growth was slow before 6h of culture, entered logarithmic growth phase after 6h, was in stable growth phase at 18-24h, and entered decline phase after 24h, see Figure 4 .

[0072] III) Morphology and physiological and biochemical identification of Aw10

[0073] After colony morphology observation, the colony was yellow, the surface was wet and raised, the edge was irregular, the shape was relatively regular, the viscosity was low, and the colony was easily picked up. The colony was opaque, see 5a. After gram staining, the observation by optical microscope showed red, which was gram-negative bacteria, see Figure 5 b. It can be known from the electron microscope photograph that the bacteria were short rod-shaped, see Figure 5 c.

[0074] The physiological and biochemical results of the strain are shown in Table 1. The indole experiment and peroxidase test of the bacteria were positive, the methyl red test, VP test and starch hydrolysis test were negative, and the bacteria could utilize glucose, sucrose, sorbitol and xylitol to produce acid and gas, and could not utilize D-arabinose, lactose and cellulose disaccharide.

[0078] Note: “+” indicates that the reaction result is positive; “-” indicates that the reaction result is negative.

[0079] IV) Temperature tolerance

[0080] As shown in Figure 6 , with the increase of temperature, OD 600nm gradually increased, when 30-55℃, the strain normal growth, the optimum growth temperature was 35℃, showed that the strain can grow normally in the conditions of high temperature, with good high temperature characteristics.

[0081] V) Alcohol tolerance

[0082] As shown in Figure 7 , with the increase of alcohol content, OD 600nm gradually decreased, showed that the strain growth gradually deteriorated, when the alcohol content reached 6%, OD 600nm tended to 0, it can be known that the maximum tolerance of the strain alcohol content was 6%.

[0083] Example 3

[0084] Determination of ferulic acid content and ferulic acid esterase activity in Aw10 fermentation broth

[0085] I) Preparation of ferulic acid standard curve

[0086] 1.0 mg of ferulic acid (chromatographically pure grade) was weighed and dissolved in 50% methanol to 10 mL to obtain 0.1 g / L of ferulic acid standard solution. Then 0.1 g / L of ferulic acid standard solution was diluted to obtain 0.04 g / L, 0.03 g / L, 0.02 g / L, 0.01 g / L, 0.007 g / L, 0.004 g / L, 0.001 g / L of ferulic acid standard solution, and the peak area was determined by high performance liquid chromatograph. The standard curve was drawn with the standard solution concentration (g / L) as the abscissa and the peak area as the ordinate, and the linear regression equation was made. As shown in Figure 8 , the regression equation y = 37550x + 19.534, the correlation coefficient R 2 = 0.9998, indicating a good linear relationship.

[0087] II) Determination of ferulic acid content

[0088] A single colony of Aw10 from the separation medium was inoculated into a 15 mL centrifuge tube containing 8 mL of seed medium and incubated at 30°C, 180 r / min in a constant temperature shaker for 20 h to obtain a seed solution. Then, 4% of the seed solution was inoculated into 100 mL of fermentation medium and incubated at 30°C, 180 r / min in a constant temperature shaker for 72 h. After fermentation, the fermentation broth was obtained. Then, 30 mL of the fermentation broth was centrifuged at 12000 r / min for 10 min. Then, 1 mL of the supernatant was filtered through a 0.22 μm water needle filter and subjected to high performance liquid chromatography detection analysis. The medium without inoculation was used as a blank control. The content of ferulic acid in the fermentation medium inoculated with Aw10 was measured to be 559.34 ± 0.58 ng / L.

[0089] III) Determination of the enzyme activity of ferulic acid esterase

[0090] 1) Preparation of the fermentation broth of Aw10: a single colony of Aw10 from the separation medium was inoculated into a 15 mL centrifuge tube containing 8 mL of seed medium and incubated at 30°C, 180 r / min in a constant temperature shaker for 20 h to obtain a seed solution. Then, 4% of the seed solution was inoculated into 100 mL of fermentation medium and incubated at 30°C, 180 r / min in a constant temperature shaker for 72 h. After fermentation, the fermentation broth was obtained.

[0091] 2) Preparation of the crude enzyme solution: 1 mL of the fermentation broth in step 1) was centrifuged at 10000 r / min for 15 min. The supernatant was used as the crude enzyme solution.

[0092] 3) Enzyme reaction test: 0.25 mL of the crude enzyme solution in step 2) was immediately added with 0.75 mL of a 0.003 mol / L methyl ferulate solution (dissolved in a 0.05 mol / L Tris-HCl solution) to form a 1 mL enzyme reaction system. Then, the enzyme reaction system was placed in a 50°C constant temperature water bath for reaction for 15 min. After the reaction, the enzyme reaction system was immediately placed in a boiling water bath for inactivation for 10 min to terminate the enzyme reaction. The enzyme reaction solution was obtained. An equal amount of Tris-HCl buffer was used to replace the crude enzyme solution as a blank control. After the enzyme reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, it was centrifuged at 12000 r / min for 10 min. Then, the enzyme reaction solution was filtered through a 0.22 μm water needle filter and subjected to high performance liquid chromatography detection analysis. The results are shown in Figure 9 The chromatogram of the enzyme reaction solution (top) and the chromatogram of the ferulic acid standard (bottom) both showed that ferulic acid was eluted at about 14 min, which proved that the enzyme reaction solution contained ferulic acid esterase. The enzyme activity was determined to be 25.5 U / L, and the enzyme could metabolize methyl ferulate to generate ferulic acid.

[0093] Definition of enzyme activity: 1 unit (1 U) of enzyme activity is the amount of enzyme required to hydrolyze 1 μmol of methyl ferulate to generate ferulic acid per minute under the conditions of 30°C and natural pH.

[0094] Example 4

[0095] Fermentation condition optimization of high-yield ferulic acid esterase strain

[0096] I) Single factor experiment

[0097] Select pH 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, fermentation temperature 24, 27, 30, 33, 37, 40℃, inoculation amount 4, 6, 8, 10, 12%, rotation speed 140, 160, 180, 200, 220r / min, 10g / L sucrose, glucose, maltose, lactose, fructose, xylan, soluble starch as carbon source, 10g / L peptone, yeast extract, urea, sodium nitrate, ammonium nitrate, ammonium sulfate, soybean as nitrogen source, 5g / L wheat bran, crushed wheat bran, starch-free wheat bran, corn meal as inducer, etc. 7 factors do single factor experiment, each group do 3 parallel.

[0098] From Figure 10 a can be known, the initial pH of the fermentation medium is 6.0, the enzyme activity of ferulic acid esterase reaches the maximum value, with the increase of pH, the enzyme activity decreases, which may be related to the domestication of acidic environment of Daqu and the adaptability of the strain, so Aw10 has strong growth and reproduction and ferulic acid esterase accumulation ability at pH 6.0.

[0099] From Figure 10 b can be known, when the fermentation temperature rises from 24℃ to 30℃, the enzyme activity increases, and when the temperature is 30℃, the enzyme activity reaches the maximum value, which may be because Aw10 is most suitable for its growth and reproduction at 30℃, and its key enzyme activity also increases. Subsequently, the enzyme activity decreases with the increase of temperature, it is speculated that the metabolic enzyme of Aw10 is inhibited at high temperature.

[0100] From Figure 10 c can be known, the enzyme activity of ferulic acid esterase increases with the increase of inoculation amount, when the inoculation amount is 6%, the enzyme activity of ferulic acid esterase reaches the maximum, and then decreases, which is because too large inoculation amount causes high cell concentration in the early stage of fermentation, and then the substrate is consumed in large quantities, causing insufficient supply of nutrients in the product synthesis stage.

[0101] From Figure 10 d can be known, the enzyme activity of ferulic acid esterase increases with the increase of rotation speed, when the rotation speed is 200r / min, the enzyme activity of ferulic acid esterase reaches the maximum value, and then begins to decrease. The accumulation of bacteria needs a lot of oxygen, low rotation speed is not conducive to the growth and reproduction of bacteria, but too high rotation speed will accelerate the decline of bacteria.

[0102] From Figure 10As shown in e-g, the enzyme activity reached a higher value when glucose was used as carbon source, followed by fructose, lactose, maltose and sucrose, and soluble starch and xylanase activity was lower; among different nitrogen sources, the enzyme production effect of yeast extract was better, followed by peptone, soybean and urea, and sodium nitrate and ammonium nitrate were poorer; since ferulic acid esterase is an induced enzyme, wheat bran contains ferulic acid ester bond which can induce the production of ferulic acid esterase, thereby improving enzyme activity. Among different inducer species, the enzyme production effect of crushed wheat bran was better, followed by de-starch bran and wheat bran, and corn flour was poorer.

[0103] As Figure 10 As shown in a-g, the single factor test results showed that the optimal fermentation conditions were pH 6.0, temperature 30℃, inoculum size 6%, rotation speed 200r / min, carbon source glucose, nitrogen source yeast extract, and inducer crushed wheat bran.

[0104] II) Steepest ascent experiment

[0105] The optimal carbon source concentration was set to 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 g / L, the nitrogen source concentration was set to 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 g / L, and the inducer concentration was set to 10, 20, 30, 40 g / L, to study the effects of different concentrations of carbon source, nitrogen source and inducer on enzyme production, as shown in Figures 11-13 The best enzyme production effect was obtained when the glucose concentration was 30 g / L, the yeast extract concentration was 50 g / L, and the crushed wheat bran concentration was 30 g / L.

[0106] III) Response surface test design

[0107] Box-Behnken Design response surface test was designed using software Design Expert 8.0.6. According to the results of the climbing test, glucose, yeast extract and crushed wheat bran were used as variables, and enzyme activity production was used as response value, to conduct a 3-factor 3-level response surface analysis test.

[0108] 1) Establishment and analysis of quadratic response surface regression model

[0109] A response surface analysis test of 3 factors and 3 levels (total of 17 tests) was conducted for A (glucose), B (yeast extract) and C (crushed wheat bran). The response surface factor level coding is shown in Table 2, and the response surface result analysis is shown in Table 3. Through multiple quadratic regression fitting, a ferulic acid esterase fermentation condition optimization model was established, and the regression equation was: Y = 78.60 + 0.71A + 2.78B + 2.01C - 0.80AB + 0.075AC + 1.65BC - 6.61A 2 -13.59B 2 -6.06C 2The regression model variance analysis table 4 shows that the model p<0.01, reaches the extremely significant level, indicating that the predicted value of the model is very consistent with the actual value. The p of the misfit term is 0.0845>0.05, and the difference of the misfit term is not significant, proving that the model has good fitting degree with the experiment, and has statistical significance. The primary items A, B and C in the model have extremely significant effect on the enzyme activity, and the primary and secondary order of the influence factors of the primary items is C>B>A. The interaction of A, B and C in the fermentation process is shown in the figure, and the primary and secondary relationship of the mutual influence between the three factors is AB>AC>BC.

[0118] 2) Analysis of the influence of the interaction of each factor on the ferulic acid esterase activity

[0119] The response surface graph can directly reflect the influence of the test factors on the ferulic acid esterase activity, and the steeper the response surface slope, the more sensitive the response surface value to the change of the operating conditions. The interaction of glucose, yeast extract and crushed wheat bran in the fermentation process is shown in the figure Figure 14 , and the primary and secondary relationship of the mutual influence between the three factors is AB>BC>AC.

[0120] According to the response surface experiment result, the optimal fermentation conditions for the fermentation production of ferulic acid esterase by Aw10 are that the addition amount of carbon source, nitrogen source and inducer is respectively: glucose 30 g / L, yeast extract 60 g / L, and crushed wheat bran 30 g / L.

[0121] In summary, the optimal fermentation conditions for the fermentation production of ferulic acid esterase by Aw10 are as follows: inoculum amount 60 mL / L, rotation speed 200 r / min, pH 6.0, temperature 30 ℃, glucose 30 g / L, yeast extract 60 g / L, crushed wheat bran 30 g / L, KCl 0.05 g / L, MgSO4·7H2O 0.05 g / L, and K2HPO4 0.10 g / L. Under the above conditions, the maximum enzyme activity of the strain Aw10 in shake flask fermentation is predicted to be 76.8 U / L. Under the above conditions, the average yield of ferulic acid esterase obtained by repeating the fermentation experiment for three times is 73.5 U / L. Comprehensive analysis shows that the fermentation experiment result is very close to the result of the response surface experiment, and the enzyme activity of the strain before optimization is 25.5 U / L, which is increased by about 2 times.

[0123] Comparison test of Aw10 fermentation

[0124] The Aw10 is subjected to solid-state fermentation of wheat, and the solid-state fermentation of wheat without inoculation of the bacteria is used as a control group. As shown in Table 5, the Aw10 produces flavor substances such as 2,3,5,6-tetramethylpyrazine, 2,3-butanedione, 2-methyl butyl butyrate, and isobutyl butyrate in the solid-state fermentation, as compared with the control group. The 2,3,5,6-tetramethylpyrazine has the aroma of nuts, toasted bread, roasted peanuts, hazelnuts, and cocoa beans; the 2,3-butanedione has the aroma of butter, fermentation, and milk fat; the 2-methyl butyl butyrate has the fruity aroma of apples; and the isobutyl butyrate has the strong fruity aroma of fresh apples and pineapples, etc., which shows that the strain has the application value in improving the taste and flavor of liquor in the production of Daqu.
