Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a high-vitamin B6-producing brewer's yeast strain INM3205 and its applications. Background Technology
[0002] Saccharomyces cerevisiae was the first eukaryote to have its genome sequenced, with the sequencing completed in 1996. It is also one of the most commonly used fermentation organisms. Saccharomyces cerevisiae possesses advantages such as a short growth cycle, strong fermentation capacity, ease of large-scale cultivation, and rich nutritional components including various proteins, amino acids, vitamins, and bioactive substances. It has long been a primary subject of basic and applied research and has wide applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is also used for the fermentation of other industrially valuable metabolites.
[0003] Vitamin B6, also known as pyridoxine, is an important water-soluble B vitamin. It exists in the body in the forms of pyridoxine (PN), pyridoxal (PL), pyridoxamine (PM), pyridoxine phosphate (PLP), pyridoxal phosphate (PNP), and pyridoxamine phosphate (PMP), participating in key biochemical processes such as amino acid metabolism and neurotransmitter synthesis. It is an essential micronutrient for maintaining healthy growth and normal physiological functions, possessing anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, neuromodulatory, and anti-tumor physiological functions, and is crucial for maintaining a healthy nervous system, healthy skin, and immune function.
[0004] 2,4-Decanadienal possesses a strong lipophilic, green, and citrus aroma. It has a boiling point of 104℃ [933 Pa (7 mmHg)], a flash point above 100℃, and is soluble in ethanol and most non-volatile oils, but insoluble in water. It is naturally found in orange peel, bitter orange, lemon, strawberry, and roasted chicken. It is a yellow to pale orange translucent liquid, belonging to both natural and artificial flavorings, primarily used in the formulation of chicken flavorings, and in potato chips, fried foods, and spicy foods. my country's food additive standard GB2760-2014 stipulates that 2,4-decadienal can be used as a synthetic flavoring agent for food.
[0005] Currently, research on vitamin B6 is diverse. Patent CN1153823, "Fermentation Production of Vitamin B6," discloses a method for producing vitamin B6, including culturing microorganisms belonging to the Rhizobium genus that can produce vitamin B6 in a culture medium under aerobic conditions. The strains used in this patent do not belong to the Yeast genus. Patent CN1232875, "Enzymatic Production of Vitamin B6," provides high yields of vitamin B6 essential for animal, plant, and microbial nutrition and usable as a pharmaceutical or food additive; the strains used include Yeast. However, the synthesis reaction in this patent involves various chemical substrates, and direct addition of the produced vitamin B6 to food may cause unpleasant flavors to the final product; furthermore, the patent does not mention the production of aroma compounds. Patent CN109757427A, "A Method for Producing Eggs High in Vitamin B6," discloses a method for producing eggs high in vitamin B6, but does not involve the application of vitamin B6 in baked goods. Patent: A method for determining the content of vitamin B6 in food - CN109060991A. This invention discloses a method for determining the content of vitamin B6 in food. Currently, no patents involve the application of 2,4-decadienal in the field of baked goods.
[0006] The above patents focus on product nutrition, covering vitamin B6 preparation, vitamin B6 detection, and product applications of vitamin B6. However, they neglect the enhancement of nutritional components and flavor in baked goods. Dough fermentation, involving yeast and lactic acid bacteria, produces acidic substances, and organic acids strongly influence the overall flavor structure of the product. Therefore, in product development, considering both flavor and nutrition will better cater to the market. Research shows that the physiological function of vitamin B6 mainly involves transamination, decarboxylation, mesoamylation of amino groups, and the metabolism of tryptophan and unsaturated fatty acids in the form of coenzymes. Vitamin B6 is readily soluble in water and alcohol, and slightly soluble in lipid solvents. In acidic solutions, all three types of vitamin B6 are relatively heat-stable, but pyridoxal is easily destroyed by heating in alkaline solutions. In solution, all three types of vitamin B6 are sensitive to light, with ultraviolet radiation causing significant damage.
[0007] 1) Adding vitamin B6 alone can negatively impact the texture of bread; 2) The extraction of vitamin B6 involves chemical solvents, which consumers find objectionable. These factors directly affect consumer acceptance of the product. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a strain that can produce vitamin B6 while simultaneously harmonizing the flavor.

Dilute the sourdough dough by 10... 1 -10 7 The bacterial suspension was evenly spread on PDA medium and the colony morphology was observed. Colonies with different morphologies were picked out and further isolated and purified on PDA, numbered S1-S10. The flour was Xiangxue Japanese bread flour (bread wheat flour), purchased from COFCO International (Beijing) Co., Ltd.
[0026] 2. Preliminary screening of bacterial strains The 10 bacterial strains were inoculated into malt extract medium at a 1% inoculum concentration and cultured at 28°C for 48 hours. The final bacterial cell density reached 10⁻⁶. 7 CFU / mL. Bacterial culture was taken from each tube and inoculated into sourdough at a 1% inoculum concentration. After incubation at 28℃ for 48 h, the mixture was centrifuged at 8000 r / min for 10 min, and the supernatant was used as the sample for physicochemical analysis. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0030] 2,4-Decadienal content: The extraction method used was a 50 / 30µm, DVB / CAR / PDMS, Stableflex solid-phase microextraction head. 5g of sample was placed in a 30mL headspace vial and extracted in a 60℃ water bath for 40min.
[0031] Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was used for detection, employing an HP-Innowax (30 m × 250 μm, 0.25 μm) capillary column.
[0032] The GC conditions were as follows: helium was used as the carrier gas, the carrier gas flow rate was set to 1 mL / min, splitless injection was performed, and the injection port temperature was 250℃.

[0035] Table 1. Analysis of Vitamin B6 and 2,4-decadienal produced during fermentation
[0036] Compounds were identified using a mass spectrometry database method. Each peak was compared to the NIST Library mass spectrometry database using a computer, and a match greater than 800 was used as the qualitative criterion. Internal standard quantification method: A certain amount of 2,4-decadienal standard was accurately added to an ethanol solution to form standard solutions of 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 μg / 100g. The content of 2,4-decadienal was calculated based on the peak area ratio.
[0037] Strains S4, S7, and S10, which have low pH and high levels of vitamin B6 and 2,4-decadienal, were selected for secondary screening.

Secondary screening of strains The three yeast strains S4, S7, and S10 selected in the initial screening were reactivated and cultured until the cell concentration reached 10⁻⁶. 7 At a concentration of CFU / mL, 1% of the starter dough was inoculated into the sourdough starter and fermented at 28°C for 48 hours. The fermented sourdough starter was then added to the starter dough at 10% of the total wheat content. Bread was made according to the national standard GB / T 14612-2008, and sensory evaluation and vitamin B6 content testing were conducted. The results are shown in Table 2.

As the target strain, the morphological observation of this strain on PDA plates is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the colonies are 1.0–5.0 mm in diameter, white, oval, with a smooth, moist, raised surface and regular edges. Gram staining followed by microscopic observation yields the following results: Figure 3 As shown.
