Heterologous expression of the Oenococcus oeni two-component signal transduction response regulator in the Lactiplantibacillus plantarum WCFS1 strain enhances acid stress tolerance.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Oenococcus oeni is a commercial wine-fermenting bacterial strain, owing to its high efficiency of malolactic fermentation and stress tolerance. The present study explored the function of key genes in O. oeni to enhance stress resistance by heterologous expression of these genes in another species.

Results

The orf00404 gene that encodes a two-component signal transduction response regulator in O. oeni was heterologously expressed in Lactiplantibacillus plantarum WCFS1. The expression of orf00404 significantly enhanced the growth rate of the recombinant strain under acid stress. At 60 h, 72 h, and 108 h of culture at pH 4.0, the recombinant strain had 1562, 641, and 748 differentially expressed genes compared to the control strain, respectively. At all three time po
