Proteomics and metagenomics reveal the relationship between microbial metabolism and protein hydrolysis in dried fermented grass carp using a lactic acid bacteria starter culture.

ABSTRACT: A microbial starter culture is expected to improve the quality of traditional fermented fish products. Lactobacillus plantarum was selected for grass carp fermentation due to its high proteolytic activity. To investigate its effects on muscle proteolysis of dried fermented fish, the protein profile and microbial community were analysed by using proteomics and metabolomics. The myofibrillar protein and collagen profiles showed remarkable variation after processing, changes that were related to the development of flavour and texture in fish samples. The starter culture had a marked effect on the microbial composition. Macrococcus and Staphylococcus were the dominant genera, with a relative abundance of 24.79% and 12.53%, respectively. There were significant correlations (P < 0.05) between the dominant genera and the major peptidase genes and quality-related proteins. These findings suggest that microbial activity is involved in proteolysis and affects the flavour and texture of dried fermented fish.

Project description:BackgroundMyxovirus resistance (Mx) proteins are crucial effectors of the innate antiviral response against a wide range of viruses, mediated by the type I interferon (IFN-I) signaling pathway. However, the antiviral activity of Mx proteins is diverse and complicated in different species.Methodology/principal findingsIn the current study, two novel Mx genes (CiMx1 and CiMx3) were identified in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). CiMx1 and CiMx3 proteins exhibit high sequence identity (92.1%), and low identity with CiMx2 (49.2% and 49.5%, respectively) from the GenBank database. The predicted three-dimensional (3D) structures are distinct among the three isoforms. mRNA instability motifs also display significant differences in the three genes. The spatial and temporal expression profiles of three C. idella Mx genes and the IFN-I gene were investigated by real-time fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) following infection with grass carp reovirus (GCRV) in vivo and in vitro. The results demonstrated that all the four genes were implicated in the anti-GCRV immune response, that mRNA expression of Mx genes might be independent of IFN-I, and that CIK cells are suitable for antiviral studies. By comparing expression patterns following GCRV challenge or poly(I:C) treatment, it was observed that GCRV blocks mRNA expression of the four genes. To determine the functions of Mx genes, three CiMx cDNAs were cloned into expression vectors and utilized for transfection of CIK cells. The protection conferred by each recombinant CiMx protein against GCRV infection was evaluated. Antiviral activity against GCRV was demonstrated by reduced cytopathic effect, lower virus titer and lower levels of expressed viral transcripts. The transcription of IFN-I gene was also monitored.Conclusions/significanceThe results indicate all three Mx genes can suppress replication of grass carp reovirus and over-expression of Mx genes mediate feedback inhibition of the IFN-I gene.
