High-Level Production of Isoleucine and Fusel Alcohol by Expression of the Feedback Inhibition-Insensitive Threonine Deaminase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Abstract: A variety of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae with intracellular accumulation of isoleucine (Ile) would be a promising strain for developing a distinct kind of sake, a traditional Japanese alcoholic beverage, because Ile-derived volatile compounds have a great impact on the flavor and taste of fermented foods. In this study, we isolated an Ile-accumulating mutant (strain K9-I48) derived from a diploid sake yeast of S. cerevisiae by conventional mutagenesis. Str… Show more

“…Supplementation with threonine and L-isoleucine returned phosphorylated Yap signals to control levels in whole-cell lysate. We then focused on isoleucine as a rate-limiting amino acid, given there exists a feedback loop between threonine and isoleucine by threonine deaminase (the enzyme involved in catalyzing the first reaction which is inhibited by isoleucine allosteric binding to inhibit the reaction at high levels of isoleucine) [21]. As such, increased levels of threonine can be generated by conversion into isoleucine.…”

“…To further narrow down our focus we considered that threonine is catabolized to isoleucine and is regulated by an inhibitory feedback mechanism, where isoleucine binds allosterically to threonine deaminase (the first enzyme in the catabolism pathway) when isoleucine levels are high, therefore inhibiting the binding of threonine. In contrast, when isoleucine levels are low, threonine can bind and the catabolism to isoleucine can continue suggesting that isoleucine is a limiting factor [21]. Since the relationship between threonine and isoleucine relies on isoleucine as a limiting factor, all experiments moving forward were performed with L-isoleucine.…”

“…For its variants, because of the different enzyme activities of each mutant, the enzyme concentrations used were 0.25–0.5 μg/mL for soluble substrates and 0.5–1.0 μg/mL for insoluble substrates. Data recorded from continuous assays were analyzed via a nonlinear regression model using the Michaelis–Menten equation implemented in GraphPad Prism 9.0 (GraphPad Software, La Jolla, CA, USA) . All experiments were carried out in triplicate.…”

“…Some of the most significant aromas and flavours are derived from the degradation (catabolism) of amino acids in the Ehrlich pathway to produce a range of higher alcohols, acids and esters. These include the aromatic amino acids, phenylalanine and tyrosine, and the branched chain amino acids (BCAA), valine, isoleucine and leucine, and individual amino acids such as threonine and methionine (Hazelwood et al, 2008; Isogai et al, 2022). In each case, the first catabolic step is a transamination to form an α-ketoacid by distinct aromatic amino acid (AAT) or branched chain amino acid aminotransferases (BCAT).…”
