METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING USEFUL PROTEINS OF BREWERY YEAST Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for identifying useful proteins of brewery yeast. More specifically, the invention relates to a method for identifying useful proteins of brewery yeast and genes encoding the proteins by proteome analysis using genome sequence information of brewery yeast.
The invention further relates to a gene identified by the above-mentioned method and uses thereof, in particular to breeding of brewery yeast useful for improving productivity of alcoholic beverages (for example beer) and/or for improving flavor such as stabilization or enhancement of flavor, the alcoholic beverages produced by using the yeast, a production method thereof and the like.
Background Art
In recent years, it is possible to introduce a target gene into desired cells and permits the gene to be expressed in the cell using genetic engineering techniques. Cells having desirable characters are prepared by gene engineering techniques with genes whose function have been analyzed using genome information.
In the production of fuel alcohol using industrial yeasts and alcoholic beverages using brewery yeasts, technologies for improving productivity and for stabilization and/or improvement of flavor have been successfully developed by using genetic engineering methods.
Proteome analysis is known as comprehensive protein analysis, and a method for identifying proteins and genes encoding the proteins as targets for genetic engineering. For example, it is used to identify the genes encoding said proteins separated by biochemical property and elucidate the function of the proteins by database searching (against known protein sequences).
An example of the most frequently used method in the analysis today is a peptide mass fingerprinting (PMF) method. A protein and a gene encoding the protein are identified by the PMF method, which comprises separating the protein by two-dimensional electrophoresis, digesting the protein with a protease such as trypsin, obtaining a mass spectrum of the resulting peptide mixture (peptide mass fingerprint) using a mass spectrometer, and comparing the mass spectrum obtained above with theoretical mass spectra calculated from amino acid sequences corresponding to
nucleotide sequences from a genome data base.
A bottom fermenting yeast as one of the brewery yeast has been analyzed using a proteome analysis method (Joubert et al., Electrophoresis, 22, 2969 (2001)). However, it was not comprehensive analysis because almost half of the genome of bottom fermenting yeast has been unknown. Namely, the bottom fermenting yeast is an alloploid composed of at least two types of genome (Y. Tamai et al., Yeast, 10, 923 (1998)). One of the genomes is considered to be derived from S. cerevisiae (Saccharomyces cerevisiae type; may be abbreviated as "Sc" hereinafter) whose genome has been sequenced (for example, see A. Goffeau et al., Nature, 387, 5 (1997)). However, remaining genome (Non-iS. cerevisiae type; may be abbreviated as "Non-Sc" hereinafter) has not been sequenced Disclosure of Invention
Under the above-mentioned situations, it is desired to analyze whole genome of the bottom fermenting yeast for the comprehensive proteome analyses to identify proteins and the genes encoding the proteins useful for improving productivity and/or flavor of the alcoholic beverages.
In view of the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have sequenced genome of the bottom fermenting yeast. The bottom fermenting yeast was proved to have a genome structure having a Sc type nucleotide sequence group that shows over 94% identity and a Non-Sc type nucleotide sequence group that shows about 84% identity. The function of proteins encoded by the gene of the bottom fermenting yeast was inferred by comparing with the amino acid sequences that are registered in the genome database (DB) of S. cerevisiae whose genome sequences have been already elucidated. The results proved that the proteins of the bottom fermenting yeast are roughly divided into two types: those with nearly 100% amino acid identity to S. cerevisiae (Sc type) and those with 70 to 97% (Non-Sc type). The present inventors have made intensive studies based on these discoveries, and have completed the invention.
The invention provides a method for identifying desired proteins of yeast or genes encoding the proteins based on information of the analyzed genome sequence of the bottom fermenting yeast.

Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention 1. Outline of the Invention
The present inventors created a database for identifying target yeast proteins and genes encoding the target proteins based on genome sequence analyzed by a method outlined in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open (JP-A) No. 2004-283169. The data were not open to the public at the priority date of this application.
The database includes information of the genome sequence of the bottom fermenting yeast. The database specifically includes information of the nucleotide sequence listed in the attached sequence listing. The content of information of the nucleotide sequence (information of the nucleotide sequence of the genome of the bottom fermenting yeast) described in the attached sequence listing is as follows.
SEQ ID Nos.: 33 to 6236 represent nucleotide sequences of 6204 Non-Sc type open reading frames (may be abbreviated as ORF hereinafter). SEQ ID Nos.: 75337 to 82784 represent nucleotide sequences of 7448 Sc type ORFs. SEQ ID Nos.: 166154 to 166181 represent nucleotide sequences of 28 mitochondrial ORFs of the bottom fermenting yeast. While SEQ ID Nos.: 166490 to 167042 have not been identified as above ORFs, they represent 553 nucleotide sequences having significant similarity to the S. cerevisiae genes by homology search with NCBI-BlastX (h±q3://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST/). SEQ ID Nos.: 173125 to 174603 have been identified as other ORFs which represent 1479 nucleotide sequences encoding proteins which show significant similarity to the S. cerevisiae protein by homology search with NCBI-BlastP (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST/).
Target proteins of yeast (or proteins having unknown functions) or genes encoding the target proteins can be identified by a proteome analysis method with use of the database based on yeast genome information. The proteome analysis methods include a method comprising the steps of: separating and purifying the target protein by a protein separation and purification method (for example two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE)) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC); and specifying the target protein by a protein identification method (for example, comparison of peptide maps obtained by mass spectral analysis or comparison of amino acid sequences obtained by amino acid sequencing). The target protein may be selected by utilizing known
methods (for example two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE), two-dimensional fluorescence differential gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) or isotope-coded affinity tag method (ICAT method)). Functions of proteins having unknown functions in the protein sample can be comprehensively analyzed by using a shot gun method.
Accordingly, the invention provides a method for specifying the target protein of the yeast (or proteins having unknown functions) and the gene encoding the target protein based on the proteome analysis method using novel sequence information of the genome of bottom fermenting yeast. Optionally, the functions of the specified target protein and the gene encoding the target protein may be analyzed using known methods.

As used herein, the term "target protein" refers to a useful protein to be specified in the invention, and all or part of the amino acid sequence is an object of search using a reference sequence database. The target protein includes a protein having unknown functions. Representative examples of the target protein include yeast proteins. While representative examples of the desired yeast proteins include proteins of the brewery yeast (for example the bottom fermenting yeast belonging to S. pastorianus and top fermenting yeast belonging to S. cerevisiae) and proteins of the baker's yeast, but are not limited thereto. An example of the preferable target protein includes a protein useful for brewing beer.
As used herein, the term "brewery yeast" refers to arbitrary yeast capable of being used for brewing of alcoholic beverages. Examples of yeast include those used for fermentation of beer, wine, sake, whisky and shochu.
The kind of beer is roughly divided into three categories depending on the kind of yeast and the method of fermentation. The three categories include natural fermentation beer fermented by utilizing wild yeast or microorganisms in a brewery; ale beer fermented at a temperature from 20 to 25°C using top fermenting yeast belonging to S. cerevisiae with a short aging period thereafter; and lager beer fermented at a temperature from 6 to 15°C using bottom fermenting yeast belonging to Saccharomyces pastorianus with low temperature aging thereafter. Bottom fermenting yeast used for brewing of lager type beer is most widely used in brewing of beer.
As used herein, the term "a part of proteins" refers to a fragments) of a protein (for example a peptide fragment obtained by protease digestion of the protein). The length of the protein fragment preferably consists of at least four amino acid residues so that the original protein can be identified by the analysis of a reference database by using the amino acid sequence of the fragment (for example, see Wilkins et al, J. Mol. Biol., 278, 599 (1998)). Synthetic polypeptides obtained by a peptide synthesizer may be included in the protein fragment.
As used herein, the term "determining the amino acid sequence" is used to mean to include deteimining all or a part of the amino acid sequence of the target protein, as
well as to include acquiring information capable of specifying the amino acid sequence of the target protein (for example a spectrum pattern obtained by using a mass spectrometer). While it is preferable to determine the complete amino acid sequence of the target protein, the invention may be practiced when an amino acid sequence having a length capable of extracting similar sequences can be determined by comparing with amino acid sequences in a reference database. For example, the target protein is considered to be screened when an identifying software, for example MASCOT, indicates the presence of at least one fragment having an expected value (P-value) of less than 0.05 in the amino acid sequence in a reference database showing a hit with the target database, and the fragment covers 5% or more, 10% or more, 20% or more, 30% or more, 40% or more, 50% or more, 60% or more, 70% or more, 80% or more, 90% or more, 95% or more, 97% or more of the total length of the target protein (naturally, the larger percentage is more preferable). The term "all or a part of the amino acid sequence" refers to all or a part of the amino acid sequence of the protein to be searched, and examples thereof include the amino acid sequence of a protein whose amino acid sequence has been known or fragments thereof, and the amino acid sequence whose amino acid sequence has not been known or fragments thereof, wherein the amino acid sequence is identified by mass spectrometric analysis or other methods according to the method for analyzing proteomes. While the amino acid sequence may be theoretically derived from a mass spectrometric pattern of the protein (may be abbreviated as "mass pattern" herein) obtained using a mass spectrometer, the mass pattern and the amino acid sequence theoretically estimated from the mass pattern may be considered to be equivalent to the amino acid sequence of all or a part of the above mentioned protein. Accordingly, the phrase "determining the amino acid sequence of the protein" is meant to include inference of all or a part of the amino acid sequence of the protein from the mass pattern. The mass pattern is usually represented by peaks of respective peptides in a polypeptide sample subjected to the analysis by taking m/z (mass/charge) of the ionized peptide or protein in the horizontal axis and a relative intensity in the vertical axis. Usually, the amino acid sequence is theoretical induced from the mass pattern using exclusive use software (for example MASCOT).
As used herein, the term "reference database" or "reference sequence database" refers to a nucleotide sequence database comprising all or a part of genome sequence information of the bottom fermenting yeast or an amino acid sequence database theoretically translated from the nucleotide sequence database. The term "theoretically translated amino acid sequence" refers to an amino acid sequence predicted to be coded
by a predetermined nucleotide sequence according to universal genetic code when the
amino acids are encoded by the gene on the nuclear (chromosomal) DNA and "The Yeast
Mitochondrial Code
(http ://www.ncbi.nlm.hih. gov/Taxonomv/Utils/wprintgc.cgi?mode=c#S G3)" when the amino acids are encoded by the gene on the mitochondria.
As used herein, the term "all of the genome sequence information of the bottom fermenting yeast" refers to an entire nucleotide sequence of the genome of the bottom fermenting yeast. As used herein, the term "a part of genome sequence information of the bottom fermenting yeast" refers to at least a part of the nucleotide sequence of the genome of the bottom fermenting yeast (for example at least one contig (contiguous nucleotide sequence)). The length of "at least a part of the nucleotide sequence of the genome of the bottom fermenting yeast" is 8 bases or more, more preferably 12 bases or more, 15 bases or more, 18 bases or more, 21 bases or more, 24 bases or more, 27 bases or more or 30 bases or more, further preferably 40 bases or more, 50 bases or more, 60 bases or more, 70 bases or more, 80 bases or more, 90 bases or more or 100 bases or more, far more preferably 200 bases or more, 300 bases or more, 400 bases or more, 500 bases or more, 600 bases or more, 700 bases or more, 800 bases or more or 900 bases or more, and most preferably 1000 bases or more. Examples of the database comprising a part of genome sequence information of the bottom fermenting yeast include, for example, a nucleotide sequence database comprising at least one contig of the genome of the bottom fermenting yeast, a nucleotide sequence information comprising at least one open reading frame nucleotide sequence of the bottom fermenting yeast, and a nucleotide sequence information comprising at least one nucleotide sequence of open reading frame classified according to respective function. The open reading frame of the nucleotide sequence of the genome may be identified by using a program such as ORF Finder ("http ://www.ncbi.nih. gov/gorf/gorf. gtml). As used herein, the term "function of the gene" may be used to include function of the gene and /or function of translation product of the gene.
2. Selection of Target Protein
The object of the invention is to identify the target protein of yeast or the gene encoding the target protein and /or the function, and the method for selecting the target protein is not particularly restricted. The target protein is usually obtained from a protein extract derived from yeast in the invention, for example from a cultivation product of yeast or yeast cells per se. However, according to the present invention, the
target protein of yeast or the gene encoding the target protein and /or the function may be analyzed by a proteome analysis method using the amino acid sequence of the protein as a clue. Accordingly, the target protein of yeast or the gene encoding the target protein and /or the function may be analyzed by determining the amino acid sequence of the protein, even when a method for obtaining the target protein is not known.
Specifically, in the present invention, a protein sample may be prepared from cultivation products obtained by cultivating the yeast under a predetermined condition.
In the present invention, protein samples obtained from two or more cultivation products may be prepared depending on the method for applied proteome analysis. For example, the same strain of yeast may be cultivated under different cultivation conditions, or different strains of yeast may be cultivated under the same cultivation condition, and the protein sample may be prepared from each cultivation product.
As used herein, the term "predetermined cultivation condition" may be any conditions capable of cultivating the yeast cells, and the compositions thereof are not particularly restricted. Accordingly, the "predetermined cultivation condition" may be appropriately selected as a condition suitable for cultivating the yeast cells in a liquid medium or solid medium, or as a specific condition which should be investigated with respect to specific characters of the cultivated products.
Examples of the cultivation condition include cultivation temperature, cultivation time, cultivation atmosphere, pH and the concentrations of substances (or kind of the medium) required for mamteining viability and growth of the yeast cells such as salts, carbon sources, nitrogen sources and vitamins. Naturally, various commercially available liquid media may be used. For example a YPD medium (2% (w/w) glucose, 1% (w/w) yeast extract, 2% (w/w) polypeptone) may be used. A preferable cultivation method is usually overnight shaking cultivation at a temperature from about 25 to 35°C. "When a protein or a gene that exhibits its function under a specified culture condition is a target, the cultivation condition is changed depending on the function. For example, when a protein related to low temperature resistance or a gene encoding the target protein is a target, the yeast is cultivated at a low temperature, and a protein expressed in high level under the cultivation condition may be selected as a target protein.
3. Extraction of Protein from Protein Sample
In the present invention, the protein sample may be extracted from the cultivation product or yeast cells obtained as described above. Any protein extraction
methods known in the art may be used as the extraction method. For example, the method described in O'Farrell, J. Biol. Chem., 250, 4007 (1975) may be used, wherein the protein may be extracted by dissolving the sample in a dissolution solution containing 8M urea, 2% NP-40, 2% carrier ampholyte and 5% 2-mercaptoethanol. Usually, in order to enhance extraction of the protein from the cells, the cells are homogenized before extraction using a homogenizer after suspending the cultivated yeast cells in a homogenizing buffer (for example 10 mrnol/L Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, 5 mmol/L MgCl2s 50 mg/L RNaseA, 1.6 mg/mL protease inhibitor (trade name COMPLETE; manufactured by Boehringer Mannheim Co.)), and a supernatant obtained by centrifugation is used for extracting the protein.
The protein is extracted at a low temperature (for example 4°C) for suppressing the protein degradation by protease contained in the yeast cells during the extraction process of the protein, and a protease inhibitor is preferably added. Examples of the protease inhibitor include serine protease inhibitors such as PMSF and chymostatin, cysteine protease inhibitors such as leupeptin, aspartic acid protease inhibitors such as pepstatin A, and metalloprotease inhibitors such as phosphoramidon and EDTA-Na2. These protease inhibitors may be used alone, or in combination. Various commercially available protease hihibitors (for example trade name COMPLETE; manufactured by Boehringer Mannheim Co.) may be used.
4. Separation of Protein
According to the present invention, subsequently, the extracted protein is separated by protein separation methods. As used herein, the term "protein separation methods" refers to a method for separating various proteins contained in the protein sample according to the molecular weight and/or charges of each protein. Examples of the "protein separation methods" include electrophoresis (for example SDS-PAGE, isoelectric focusing and two-dimensional electrophoresis), liquid chromatography (for example ion-exchange chromatography, gel filtration chromatography, affinity chromatography, HPLC and FPLC), gas chromatography, centrifugation (for example ultra-centrifugation), precipitation (for example ammonium sulfate precipitation, organic solvent precipitation (for example acetone precipitation and ethanol precipitation)), pH treatment (for example acid treatment) and membrane separation (for example ultrafiltration).
The target protein may be preferably separated using two-dimensional electrophoresis, two-dimensional fluorescence differential gel electrophoresis or the like.
Simple and preferable protein separation methods may include two-dimensional electrophoresis. The two-dimensional electrophoresis is a method comprising two steps. The first step is one-dimensional gel electrophoresis using a disk or a planar gel. The second step is placing the first-dimensional gel at the top of a plate of an electrophoresis gel under a different principle or condition from the first-dimensional electrophoresis and separating the protein by electrophoresis in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the first-dimensional electrophoresis. In the present invention, two-dimensional electrophoresis by O'Farell (1975, supra) may be favorably used, (usually, isoelectric focusing is used as the first-dimensional electrophoresis followed by two-dimensional SDS-PAGE). Liquid chromatography (LC) may be also favorably used in the invention other than two-dimensional electrophoresis.
The proteins separated by gel electrophoresis may be detected by Coomassie brilliant blue staining or silver staining. The proteins may be stained with other pigments (for example, amido black, Ponceau S or fluorescent pigment). Various staining kits are commercially available.
In the method of the present invention, subsequently, a separation pattern (or separation profile) of the proteins separated by the protein separation methods is analyzed to select a target peak(s) or spot(s), and the target protein or a fragment of the protein contained in the peak(s) or spot(s) are recovered. The "separation pattern (or separation profile)" as used herein is intended to mean an elution profile or a two-dimensional electrophoresis pattern indicated by the separated protein by the protein separation methods. For example, the profile means an elution profile when the protein sample is separated by liquid chromatography, and the pattern (or profile) means the pattern (or profile) of the protein distributed on the gel when the protein sample is separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis. The molecular weight of each separated protein is usually indicated by the position (or mobility) of the peak or spot in the separation pattern, and the concentration of each protein is shown by the intensity of each peak or spot. The desired peak or spot (target peak or target spot) is selected from these peaks or spots with reference to the position, mobility or intensity of the peak or spot.
The yeast cells may be independently cultivated in the above-mentioned cultivation process under the conditions in which at least one parameter (for example temperature, osmotic pressure and addition of ethanol) is higher or lower (stress condition) as compared with a usual cultivation condition (non-stress condition) suitable for cultivation of the yeast cells so that yeast cells having desired characteristics may be selected, if necessary. The separation pattern of the protein sample derived from a yeast
strain cultivated under the stress condition may be compared with the separation pattern of the protein sample derived from a yeast strain cultivated under the non-stress condition, and peaks or spots expressed in higher levels or lower levels than those under the non-stress condition are selected.
In another embodiment of the present invention, a wild strain of the brewery yeast and a mutant strain or a strain that more evidently exhibits desired characteristics than the wild strain may be cultivated under a condition suitable for cultivating the yeast. The protein samples extracted from these cultivation products are separated by the protein separation methods, and the separation pattern of the protein sample derived from the wild strain is compared with that from the mutant strain or the strain that more evidently exhibits desired characteristics than the wild strain. Thus, the peak or spot of the protein expressed in a high level (or low level) is selected from the mutant strain or the strain that more evidently exhibits desired characteristics than the wild strain. An example of the strain that more evidently exhibits the desired characteristics than the wild strain includes a strain that provides more beer flavor components than the wild strain. Consequently, the method of the present invention may be used for identifying proteins that are the causes of emergence of phenotypes of the strain that more evidently exhibits the desired characteristics than the wild strain or genes encoding the target proteins.
In another embodiment, the separation pattern of the protein sample may be compared with the separation pattern of the protein sample extracted from a strain of S. cerevisiae whose genome has been published, when the protein sample extracted from a fermentation product of brewery yeast is separated, and then a target spot or peak is selected. Then, the target protein contained in the peak or spot or fragments of the protein are recovered, and a peak or spot characteristic in the separation pattern of the brewery yeast is selected. The protein specific to the bottom fermenting yeast or the gene encoding the target protein can be efficiently identified by determining the amino acid sequences of the proteins of these spots, and by searching and identifying the nucleotide sequence corresponding to each amino acid in the database of the open reading frame of the genome sequence of the bottom fermenting yeast. The separation pattern of the protein sample extracted from the yeast strain of S. cerevisiae available may be arranged into a database in advance as a two-dimensional electrophoresis database.
In a further embodiment of the present invention, the protein may be extracted from the yeast cells samnled from a fermentation broth of beer in order to identify a
useful protein of the brewery yeast and to select a desired protein. Specifically, beer is fermented using the bottom fermenting yeast, the fermentation broth is sampled with time from the start of fermentation, and the cell growth and apparent extract concentration are observed. The yeast cells are recovered from the sampled fermentation broth by centrifugation in parallel with sampling, and the protein is extracted from the recovered yeast cells. The fermentation (cultivation) supernatant is also recovered, and the amino acid composition is analyzed using the recovered fermentation supernatant. The protein extracted from the cells is then separated by the protein separation means to prepare a separation pattern or separation profile. The separation patterns or separation profiles of the protein extract derived from the cells, which are sampled at two or more different times (for example after 8 hours and after 32 hours) from the start of fermentation, may be compared to one another. Then, a spot or peak that shows an increased intensity in accordance with the decrease of the contents of valine, leucine, isoleucine, methionine or the like, which are obtained from amino acid analysis of the fermentation supernatant, may be selected. A desired protein may be also selected from the brewed broth or fermented broth of wine or sake, not only from the broth of beer.
Subsequently, the target protein contained in the target peak or spot or the fragments thereof is recovered. "When the protein separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis is subjected to peptide mass fingerprinting or to amino acid sequence analysis by mass analysis, the separated protein is specifically fragmented with protease or using a chemical degradation method usually in a gel or on a membrane filter by transferring the protein on the membrane filter after separating by two-dimensional electrophoresis. Both the digestion method in the gel and the digestion method on the membrane filter are used in the invention.
An Eckerskorn-Lottspeich method (Eckerskorn, C. & Lottspeich, F., Chromatographia, 28, 92 (1989)) or an improved method thereof may be used as the digestion method in the gel. In the Eckerskorn-Lottspeich method, the gel fraction including the desired spot (target protein portion) on the gel stained by Coomassie brilliant blue is cut out, and the gel fraction is soaked in alkaline solution. Then, the gel fraction is dried, and the gel fraction is rehydrated by adding a protease solution to the dry gel fraction in order to permit the protease to permeate into the gel. The protein is digested by allowing the protease to contact the protein. Trypsin and lysyl endopeptidase may be used as the protease. The protein may be fragmented on the membrane filter by interposing a PVDF membrane on which trypsin or lysyl
endopeptidase is bound between the gel and blotting membrane filter when the protein
separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis is blotted. The protein can be digested
when the protein is transferred from the gel to the blotting membrane filter, and the
protein is blotted on the blotting membrane filter as peptides.
> In the present invention, the target protein can be separated with use of two-
dimensional fluorescence differential gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) or isotope-coded affinity tag method (ICAT method; Nat. Biotechnol., 17, 994 (1999)). Since proteins obtained from two different cultivation products may be labeled with different fluorescent labels or isotope labels, respectively, according to 2D-DIGE or ICAT method, it is an advantage of these methods that differently expressed proteins in both cultivation products can be readily found.
5. Determination of Amino Acid Sequence of Target Protein
In the process of the present invention, subsequently, the amino acid sequence of the target protein or fragments thereof is determined. The amino acid sequence may be usually determined using a mass spectrometer (MS). In the mass spectrometric analysis, the mass of the sample is determined by ionizing a sample such as a protein or peptide using MS, separating the ions obtained according to mass/charge (m/z) ratios, and measuring the intensity of each separated ion peak. Various methods such as matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization method (MALDI) method, electro-spray ionization (ESI) method, gas phase (EI, CI) method and field desorption ionization (FD) method may be used for ionization. An ion separation method compatible with the ionization method may be used for ion separation, and examples of the apparatus used for the method include a time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometer for MALDI and a quadrupole (QMS), ion trap or magnetic sector mass spectrometer for ESI. The mass spectrometer may be used in tandem. Examples of the apparatus include LC-ESI, MS/MS, Q-TOF MS and MALDI-TOF MS. Other methods for detenrining the amino acid sequence, for example a method for detenuining the amino acid sequence with a sequencer (for example gas phase sequencer), may be also used.
Mass spectrum (peptide mass fingerprint) of the peptide mixture obtained by protease digestion is produced by MS. While the mass spectroscopic method is not particularly restricted, representative examples include MALDI-TOF MS and ESI Q-TOF MS. The characteristics of the protein separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis can be elucidated (for example determination of the amino acid sequence) comparing the peptide mass fmger print with the theoretical spectrum
calculated from the amino acid sequence of the protein database. In addition, the gene encoding the protein can be identified by comparing the peptide mass finger print with the theoretical mass spectrum calculated from the amino acid sequence corresponding to the nucleotide sequence of the DNA database. An exclusive use software (for example MASCOT) may be usually used for such treatment.
A shot-gun analysis method (Nat. Biotechnol., 17, 676 (1999)) may be used for proteome analysis of the present invention. In the shot-gun analysis method, extracted proteins are digested with a protease, and digestion products are separated by multi-dimensjpnal LC. Then, the amino acid sequences of the peptides in the digested products are analyzed by MS/MS, and a large amount of the sequence data are analyzed by a computer to sequentially identify the proteins. It is advantageous to use this shotgun analysis method that proteins having unknown functions can be collectively analyzed from a cultivation product of a given yeast.
6. Identification of Gene
After determining the amino acid sequence of the target protein (or a part of the protein) as described above, the gene encoding the protein is determined from the amino acid sequence (or a part of the amino acid sequence) with reference to the reference database.
The reference database used in the invention comprises all or a part of genome sequence information of the bottom fermenting yeast.
Examples of the reference database used in the invention are described below. (Database: Reference Example 1)

(Database: Reference Example 12)
In addition, databases which can be used, may comprise the following sequence information: 1 or more, 2 or more, 3 or more, 4 or more, 5 or more, 6 or more, 7 or more, 8 or more, 9 or more, 10 or more, 11 or more, 12 or more, 13 or more, 14 or more, 15 or more, 16 or more, 17 or more, 18 or more, 19 or more, 20 or more, 25 or more, 30 or more, 35 or more, 40 or more, 45 or more, 50 or more, 55 or more, 60 or more, 65 or more, 70 or more, 75 or more, 80 or more, 85 or more, 90 or more, 95 or more, 100 or more, 200 or more, 300 or more, 400 or more, 500 or more, 600 or more, 700 or more, 800 or more, 900 or more, 1000 or more, 1100 or more, 1200 or more, 1300, or 1400 or more nucleotide sequences selected from nucleotide sequences of SEQ ID Nos.: 173125 to 174603.
In one preferable embodiment of the invention, amino acid sequence databases theoretically translated from the nucleotide sequence database for the genome of the bottom fermenting yeast may be used as the reference databases. For example, the amino acid sequence database corresponding to the database of the above-mentioned nucleotide sequence may be used. However, these databases are presented merely as examples, and the reference database used in the invention is by no means restricted to
these examples.
As used herein, the term "refer to the reference database" is intended to mean to • determine whether a nucleotide sequence or amino acid sequence corresponding to all or a part of the amino acid sequence of the target protein or the mass pattern thereof is present in the database by searching the reference database. Usually, such operations are conducted by rurining common software on a computer. While software such as BLAST, FASTA, Smith & Waterman, pep-pat (http://peppat.cbi.plcu.edu.cn/) may be used for search of all or a part of the amino acid sequence of the target protein, but are not limited thereto. While commercially available software such as MASCOT may be used for search of all or a part of the mass pattern of the target protein, but is not limited thereto.
The reference database may be used by being stored in an external recording medium such as a hard disk of a computer or CD-ROM, or in a recording medium such as a server.
Not only amino acid sequence 100% identical to the sequence to be searched, but also amino acid sequences 60% or more, preferably 70% or more, more preferably 80% or more, further preferably 90% or more, and most preferably 95% or more, 96% or more, 97% or more, 98% or more, or 99% or more identical to the sequence to be searched are searched in the database by taking the possibility of mutation into consideration in searching the above-mentioned amino acid sequence. Software such as BLAST, FASTA, and Smith & Waterman may be used for such search.
As used herein, the term "identical to", for example, "an amino acid sequence at least 95% identical to the sequence to be searched" is intended to mean that the amino acid sequence to be searched is identical to the reference sequence, except that mismatch of up to 5 amino acid residues in a sequence consisting of 100 amino acids may be included in the reference amino acid sequence. "Mismatch" is caused by substitution, addition, deletion and/or insertion of one or more amino acid residue(s) in an arbitrary position of the sequence.
In a further another aspect of the invention, results of search are analyzed using a comparative database associated with genome sequence information of 5". cerevisiae in which genome sequence information has been published. The function of ORF identified in the reference nucleotide sequence may be deduced by homology search with the amino acid sequence of ORF of S. cerevisiae. Genome sequence information is registered as a database Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD: http://www.yeastgenome.org/)-and open to the public.
7. Analysis of Function of Identified Gene
When the gene encoding the target protein could be identified as described above, the function of said gene could be deduced by searching a known database. Such search is possible by using a sequence alignment algorithm, for example BLAST algorithm. Thus, the function of the gene may be considered to be similar with the gene identified by this search. As used herein, the term "analyze the function of the gene" is used to mean to deduce the function from known information.
To be more practice, Non-Sc gene of the bottom fermenting yeast may be identified by using the reference database used in the present invention. The function of such Non-Sc gene may be considered to be similar with the function of the gene hit by homology search for the comparative reference database, for example, the amino acid sequence and nucleotide sequence of ORF of S. cerevisiae registered in the Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD: http://www.yeastgenome.org/), and a non-redundant (nr) database described in National Center of Biotechnology Information (NCBI: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/).
Annotations of the functions of 6204 Non-ScORFs (SEQ ID Nos.: 33 to 6236) and 28 mitochondrial ORFs (SEQ ID Nos.: 166154 to 166181) encoded in the genome of the bottom fermenting yeast are listed at the end of the present specification.
For confirming the function of the target protein and the gene encoding the target protein, the gene identified by the above-mentioned method is inserted into a vector. Then, the yeast cells are transformed with that vector to evaluate to the function of the target protein.
Such vector is usually constructed so that the vector comprises (a) a promoter capable of transcription in the yeast cells, (b) a polynucleotide (DNA) linked to the promoter in a sense direction of antisense direction and identified by the above-mentioned method, and (c) an expression cassette comprising a signal that functions in yeast as a constituting element with respect to termination of transcription of RNA molecules and polyadenylation.
For example, when the protein identified as described above is allowed to be expressed in a high level in fermentation of alcoholic beverages such as beer, a polynucleotide is introduced in a sense direction relative to the promoter so as to enhance expression of the polynucleotide (DNA) of the gene encoding the above-mentioned identified protein. When expression of the above-mentioned protein is to be suppressed in fermentation of alcoholic beverages such as beer, a polynucleotide is introduced in an
antisense direction relative to the promoter so as to suppress expression of the polynucleotide (DNA) of the gene encoding the above-mentioned identified protein. Expression of the above-mentioned DNA or expression of the above-mentioned protein may be suppressed in the invention by disrupting the target gene (DNA). The gene can be disrupted by adding a single base or plurality of bases to, or deleting a single base or plurality of bases in regions related to expression of gene products in the target gene, for example within coding regions or promoter regions, or by deleting entire regions. Published reports may be referenced with respect to the method for disrupting these genes (for example, see Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 76, 4951(1979), Methods in Enzymology, 101,202(1983) and JP-A No. 6-253826).
The vectors available for introducing them into the yeast are any of vectors of a multiple copy (YEp) type, single copy (YCp) type and chromosome-integrated (Yip) type. For example, examples of YEp vector include YEp24 (J. R. Broach et al., Experimental Manipulation of Gene Expression, Academic Press, New York, 83 (1983)). Examples of YCp vector include YCp50 (M. D. Rose et al., Gene, 60, 237 (1987)). Examples of Yip vector include YIp50 (K. Struhl et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 76, 1035 (1979)). These vectors are readily available.
Examples of the promoter/terminator available for regulating expression of the gene in yeast include a promoter for glyceraldehyde triphosphate dehydrogenase gene (TDH3) and a promoter for 3-phosphoglycerate kinase gene (PGK1). These genes have been already cloned as described in detail in, for example, Tuite et al., EMBO J., 1, 603 (1982). They are readily available by known methods.
While auxotrophic makers cannot be used as the selection maker used for transformation in the brewery yeast, a geneticin resistance gene (G418r), copper resistant gene (CUP1) (Marin et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 81, 337 (1984)) and cerulenin resistant marker (fas2m, PDR4) may be used (J. Inokoshi et al., Biochemistry (seikagaku), 64, 660 (1992); Hussain et al., Gene, 101, 149 (1991)). The vectors constructed as described above are introduced into host yeast. Examples of the host yeast include those available for fermentation, for example brewery yeast for beer, wine and sake. While specific examples include yeast of genus Saccharomyces, brewery yeast such as Saccharomyces pastorianus Weihenstephan 34/70, Saccharomyces carlsbergensis NCYC453 and NCYC456, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) NBRC1951, NBRC1952, NBRC1953, NBRC1954) may be used in the invention. While whisky yeast such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC90, wine yeast such as yeast for wine of brewing society of Japan #1, #3 and #4, and sake
yeast such as yeast for sake of brewing society of Japan #7 and #9 may be also used, but are not limited thereto. Beer yeast, for example Saccharomyces pastorianus, is preferably used in the present invention.
Yeast may be transformed by a well known method used commonly. For example, an electroporation method "Meth. Enzym., 194, 182 (1990)", a spheroplast method "Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 75, 1929 (1978)" and lithium acetate method "J. Bacteriology, 153,163 (1983), Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 75, 1929 (1978), Methods in Yeast Genetics, 2000 Edition : A Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Course Manual" are available, but are not limited thereto.
More specifically, the host yeast is cultivated in a standard yeast nutrient medium (for example YEPD "Genetic Engineering. Vol.1, Plenum Press, New York, 117 (1979)") to OD 600 nm of from 1 to 6. The fermented yeast is collected by centrifugation, and is pretreated with an alkali metal ion, preferably lithium ion, at a concentration form 1 to 2M. The cells are allowed to stand still for about 60 minutes at about 30°C, and additionally allowed to stand still at about 30°C for about 60 minutes by mixing with DNA (from about 1 to 20 jig) to be introduced. Polyethylene glycol, preferably polyethylene glycol with a molecular weight of about 4000 dalton, is added to a final concentration of from about 20% to 50%. After allowing the cells to stand still at 30°C for about 30 minutes, the cells are heat-treated at about 42°C for about 5 minutes. Preferably, the cell suspension solution is washed with the standard yeast nutrient medium, and allowed to stand still for about 60 minutes at about 30°C by pouring the suspension solution into a fresh standard yeast nutrient medium. The cells are seeded thereafter on a standard agar medium containing an antibiotics used as a selection marker to obtain a transformant. References may be made to "Molecular Cloning (Methods in Yeast Genetics, A laboratory manual (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, NY))" with respect to other standard cloning techniques.
Measurement of the expression level of the target gene is possible by quantificarion of mRNAs or proteins as the target gene products extracted from yeast cell culture. Methods known in the art may be used for quantification of the rnRNA or protein. For example, mRNAs are quantified, for example, by Northern hybridization or qualitative RT-PCR, while proteins are quantified by Western blotting (Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, John Wiley & Sons 1994-2003).
The assimilation property of amino acids, sulfate ions and ammonia, low temperature resistance, foam stability, haze formation, ester formation and flocculation property of the yeast can be evaluated by a beer fermentation test and so on, and thus the
function of the gene encoding the target protein can be evaluated.
8. Evaluation of yeast
Yeast favorable for brewing of desired alcoholic beverages may be selected by comparing characteristics of the test yeast with that of the standard yeast. The yeast transformed with above-mentioned vector, the yeast in which said gene expression is genetically controlled, the yeast subjected to mutation treatment and spontaneously mutated yeast may be used as the test yeast or standard yeast. The mutation treatment can be applied by a method known in the art such as UV irradiation and EMS treatment (see, for example, Yasuji Ohsima, Seikagaku Jikkenho (Method of Biochemical Experiments), Vol. 39, p67-75, published by Japan Scientific Societies Press) or by them with appropriate modification.
Thus, yeast whose genome has been sequenced, mutant strains of said yeast and yeast strains selected from a culture collection may be subjected to proteome analysis to identify proteins showing variations of the expression level. Further, the proteome analysis of wild type of industrial strains and production strains having favorable phenotype can be used for identification of target proteins for breeding to improve productivity of desired products. To be more practice, when wild type strain and mutant strain which produces much amount of beer flavor compound are subjected to proteome analysis, spots corresponding to mutant strain may be identified, and consequently, protein contained in each spot may be analyzed and identified to show contribution to increasing the amount of beer flavor compound. Alternatively, spots showing different amounts of proteins among the conditions are found by the proteome analysis of the strains cultivated under different cultivation conditions, and the spots are subjected to search of the database. Consequently, the protein necessary for adaptation to the cultivation condition and the gene encoding the target protein may be identified.
Further, the present invention may enable not only a nucleotide sequence encoding a protein but also a nucleotide sequence locating upstream of the coding region to be searched. Therefore, for example, a nucleotide sequence that functions as a high-expression promoter may efficiently be selected by indentifying a protein showing a high level of expression in the bottom fermenting yeast cells by proteome analysis. Moreover, since modifications of proteins can cause changes in separation of proteins in proteome analysis, the modified protein may efficiently be identified by search using nucleotide sequence information and amino acid sequence information of the bottom fermenting yeast of the present invention, or search using a recording medium on which
the nucleotide and amino acid sequence information are recorded.
Actually, through the proteome analysis of the proteins extracted from the bottom fermenting yeast cells in the beer brewing, the present inventors identified one of the proteins that showed the increases of expression levels along with the decrease of the methionine concentration in the beer fermentation broth as Non-ScMET17. Futhermore, according to this result, the present inventors identified and isolated the gene encoding Non-ScMET17. The gene was introduced into the yeast cells by gene engineering techniques and highly expressed in the transformant cells. This resulted in large decrease of H2S production in the yeast cells during beer fermentation.
Examples
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to working examples. The present invention, however, is not limited to the examples described below.
Example 1: Proteome analysis of the yeast during beer fermention. 1. Beer fermentation test and sampling of the yeast cells
A fermentation test using bottom fermenting yeast Saccharomyces pastorianus Weihenstephan 34/70 strain (pYCGPYNot plasmid introduced strain) was performed under the following conditions.
Wort extract concentration: 12%
Wort content: 2 L
Wort dissolved oxygen concentration: about 8 ppm
Fermentation temperature: 15°C constant
Yeast pitching rate: 5g of wet yeast cell/1 L wort
The fermentation broth was regularly sampled, and the time-course changes in the yeast cell growth (Fig. 1) and the apparent extract concentration (Fig. 2) were observed. At the same time, yeast cells corresponding to 90 mg (wet weight) were harversted by centrifugation (3,000 x g, 4°C, 10 minutes). The harversted cells were allowed to be preserved for about several days at -80°C. The frozen cells were defrosted immediately before use at room temperature. The supernatant of the fermentation broth was also recovered, and amino acid composition thereof was analyzed
2. Analysis of the amino acid composition of the supernatant of the fermentation
broth
The amino acid composition of the supernatant of the fermentation broth was analyzed using a high speed amino acid analyzer (trade name: L-8800, manufactured by Hitachi Co.) and standard amino acid analysis column (trade name: P/N 855-3506, manufactured by Hitachi Co.)- The time-course change in the methionine concentration is shown in Fig. 3.
3. Preparations of electrophoresis samples
Yeast cell extracts for two-dimensional electrophoresis were prepared by the following procedure. After washing once with lysis buffer (10 mmol/L, Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 2 mmol/L MgCh), the cells were resuspended in 500 uL of lysis buffer containing Protease Inhibitor Cocktail for use with Fungal and Yeast Extracts (manufactured by SIGMA Co.) (hereinafter, represented by protease inhibitor cocktail) at a final concentration of 1% together with 0.5 g of dry-heat sterilized glass beads (425 to 600 um, manufactured by SIGMA Co.). Cells were then disrupted by stirring at 4°C for 45 minutes using a TWIN 3-28 Tuple mixer (manufactured by Asahi TechnoGlass Co.). In this process, the sample was placed on ice for 2 minutes for every 15 minutes. After disruption, non-disrupted cells and insoluble substances were removed by centrifugation (15,000 x g, 4°C, 10 minutes), and the supernatant fraction was recovered. Benzonase nuclease (manufactured by Novagen Co.) was added to the supernatant fraction at a final concentration of 0.25 U/uX sample, and the sample was placed on ice for 30 minutes. Then, 5 mol/L of NaCl was added at a final concentration of 1 mol/L and the sample was placed on ice for another 5 minutes. Insoluble substances were removed by centrifugation (15,000 x g, 4°C, 5 minutes) to retrieve the supernatant fraction. The supernatant was divided into two portions, each portion was applied on a ultrafiltration spin column (trade name: Microcon YM-10, manufactured by Millipore Co.), and each supernatant was concentrated to a volume of 100 uL or less at 14,000 x g and 4°C. 400 uL of cold ultrapure water containing protease inhibitor cocktail at a final concentration of 1% was added thereto and mixed by pipetting, and each was concentrated to a volume of 100 uL or less at 14,000 x g and 4"C again. After desalting and concentration of the sample by repeating the same concentrating operation 3 times, the concentrated sample was recovered. While a part of the solute was precipitated in this concentration process,
the precipitated solute was also recovered. The sample including the precipitate was sohxbilized by adding 4-fold volume of sample buffer (9.3 M urea, 2.3% (w/w) of CHAPS, 46.5 mM DTT, 0.002% (w/v) BPB), and the protein concentration of the sample was determined using 2D-Quant Kit (manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.). The sample corresponding to 111 u.g of protein (usually, the volume of the sample was less than 50 uL) was mixed with 2.5 uL IPG Buffer (pH 4-7, manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.) and 430 uL of sample buffer, and was used as a electrophoresis sample after diluting to a total volume of 500 |iL with ultra-pure water.
4. Separation of proteins by two-dimensional electrophoresis
The first-dimension separation of the proteins by isoelectric focusing was carried out as follows. After applying 450 uL of the electrophoresis sample (corresponding to 100 ]ig of protein) to 24 cm Strip Holder (manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.), a ready-made, dried immobilized pH gradient (IPG) strip gel (trade name: Immobiline DryStrip pH 4-7,24cm, manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.) was placed onto the solution. Then, IPG Cover Fluid (manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.) was applied into the holder until the entire IPG strip was covered. The holder was positioned onto the platform of IPGphor isoelectric focusing apparatus (manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.), and rehydration of the gel and following isoelectric focusing were performed at a controlled temperature of 20°C. The electric current limit during isoelectric focusing was 50 u-A/strip.
Rehydration: 10 hours
Isoelectric focusing, first step: 2 hours at a constant voltage of 500 V
Isoelectric focusing, second step: 1 hour under a gradient mode from 500 to 1000 V
Isoelectric focusing, third step: 3 hours under a gradient mode from 1000 to 8000 V
Isoelectric focusing, fourth step: 5.6 hours at a constant voltage of 8000 V
After isoelectric focusing, the IPG strip gel was taken out of the holder and the excess cover fluid was removed for the second-dimension separation, SDS-PAGE. When it was difficult to perform SDS-PAGE immediately after completing isoelectric focusing, the IPG strip gel was allowed to be stored in a hermetically sealable tube at -80"C for several days. The gel after freeze storage was subjected to SDS-PAGE by the same procedure as the sample not preserved by freezing after defrosting at room temperature. SDS-PAGE was performed as follows. The IPG strip gel was immersed
in 20 mL/strip of SDS equilibration buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.8), 6 M urea, 30% (v/v) glycerol, 2% (w/v) SDS, 1% (w/v) DTT, 0.002% (w/v) BPB), and was equilibrated by gently shaking at room temperature for 15 minutes. DALT Gel 12.5 (manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.) was attached to Ettan DALT Precast Gel Cassette (manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.). The equilibrated IPG strip gel was rinsed by dipping in cathode buffer (packaged in DALT Buffer Kit, manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.) and then attached so as to closely adhere on the top surface of DALT Gel 12.5. A piece of filter paper impregnated with molecular weight marker (trade name: LMW SDS Electrophoresis Calibration Kit, manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.) was also attached to the top surface of DALT Gel 12.5, and they were sealed with sealing solution (packaged in DALT Buffer Kit, manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.) melted by heating at 95 °C. A prescribed volume of anode buffer (packaged in DALT Buffer Kit, manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.) was injected into the electrophoresis tank of Ettan DALT electrophoresis apparatus (manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.). The gel was inserted into the unit and the cathode chamber was filled with a prescribed volume of cathode buffer (packaged in DALT Buffer Kit, manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.). Electrophoresis was performed at a constant temperature of 25°C, and after running at 5 W/gel for 30 minutes, continued at 17 W/gel until the dye front of BPB included in the sealing solution reached the lower end of the gel.
5. Detection of protein spots
After completing SDS-PAGE, silver staining of the gel was performed with reference to the method by Shevchenko, A. et al (Anal. Chem., 68, 850 (1996)) and the protocol attached to Silver Staining Kit, Protein (manufactured by Amersham Biosciences Co.). The gel after electrophoresis was immersed in a fixing solution (40% (v/v) ethanol, 10% (v/v) acetic acid) for 30 minutes to overnight. After placing the gel for additional 30 minutes after exchange of the fixing solution, the gel was immersed in a sensitizing solution (30% (v/v) ethanol, 0.2% (w/v) Na2S203,6.8% (w/v) sodium acetate, 30 minutes), ultra-pure water (5 minutes) * 3, silver reaction solution (0.25% (w/v) AgN03,20 minutes) and ultra-pure water (1 minute) x 2 in this order, and was developed by immersing in developing solution (2.5% Na2C03, 0.04% (v/v) of 37% (w/v) formaldehyde) until the protein spots were stained until an appropriate chromatic intensity was reached. The gel was immersed in stopping solution (1.46% (w/v) EDTA-]NIa2-2H20,10 minutes), ultra-pure water (5 minutes) x 3 and preserving solution
(8.7% (w/v) glycerol, 20 minutes) in this order thereafter to complete staining. The gel was gently shaken at room temperature in each step of staining, and the volume of all the solutions used was 250 mL/gel.
The proteins extracted from the cells were separated through the above-mentioned operations, and were able to be detected as spots.
6. Preparation of mass spectral analysis sample
The gels of two-dimensional electrophoresis carried out by using the yeast cells sampled at 8 and 32 hours after the start of fermentation test were compared to one another, and protein spots that showed increased intensities along with the decrease of methionine in the fermentation broth were selected and excised. When the amount of protein contained in a spot was not sufficient for mass spectral analysis, the identical spots were excised from two or more sheets of the gel on which the same electrophoresis sample was applied, and the excised gel pieces were collected in one fraction. The excised gel piece was transferred to a low adsorption tube, and was subjected to destaining and in-gel digestion steps described below. When it was difficult to perform the following treatments immediately, the gel pieces were stored at 4°C for a maximum period of several days with soaking in 500 uL/tube of fixing solution (33% (v/v) ethanol, 7.5% (v/v) acetic acid).
The gel pieces were destained by the following procedure. 100 uL of 50/50 30 mM K3Fe(CN)6 in 100 mM Na2S203 was added to the gel pieces, and the solution was removed after shaking for 10 minutes at room temperature in the dark. Subsequently, the gel pieces were washed with 500 \iL of ultra-pure water by shaking for 10 minutes at room temperature and then water was removed. This operation was performed three times. After that, the gel pieces were washed with 300 uL of 0.1M NH4HCC>3/50% acetonitrile by shaking for 15 minutes at room temperature. This operation was repeated again.
After destaining, the proteins contained in the gel pieces were subjected to reductive alkylation as follows! 200 uL of reduction buffer (10 mM DTT, 98% 0.2M Tris, 2% EDTA-Na2 (pH 8.0)) was added to the gel pieces and they were incubated at 37"C for 1 hour. After adding 4 uL of 4-vinylpyridine, the gel pieces were allowed to stand in dark for 1 hour, and 4 uL of 2-mercaptoethanol and 1 mL of ultra-pure water was further added. The supernatant was removed after allowing the gel pieces to stand for 30 rriinutes. Subsequently, 1 mL of ultra-pure water was added to the gel pieces and removed after incubation for 30 minutes. This operation was performed three times, and then, the gel pieces were incubated with 1 mL of 0.1M NH4HCO3/50% acetonitrile
for 30 minutes. After removing the supernatant, the gel pieces were frozen at -80"C and were dried for 2 hours using SpeedVac vacuum drier (manufactured by Thermo Electron Co.).
The proteins in the dried gel were digested as follows. 5 uL of trypsin solution (0.1 ug/uL) was added to the gel pieces, and the solution was allowed to stand at 4°C for 10 minutes. 200 uL of digest buffer (50% 0.2M NH4HCO3, 10% acetonitrile, 0.5% 0.1 M CaCl2) was added to the gel pieces and they were incubated at 37°C overnight. After retrieving the liquid phase, the gel was shaken for additional 30 minutes with 200 uL of 0.1% TEA/60% acetonitrile. This liquid phase and the liquid phase recovered in advance were combined, and the combined liquid phase was frozen at -80° C followed by vacuum drying. After adding 10 uL of 2% acetonitrile/0.1% TFA to the freeze-dried samples and shaking them for 10 minutes, insoluble fractions were removed by centrifugation for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was used as a sample for mass spectral analysis.
7. Mass spectral analysis and amino acid sequence analysis of target protein using
liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometer (LC-MS/MS1
The sample for mass spectral analysis was separated using Paradigm MS-4 HPLC apparatus (manufactured by Michrom BioResources Co.) and Magic CIS column (manufactured by Michrom BioResources Co.). Depending on the separation states, either solvent A (2% acetonitrile, 0.1% formic acid) and solvent B (90% acetonitrile, 0.1% formic acid), or solvent A (2% acetonitrile, 0.1% TFA) and solvent B (90% acetonitrile, 0.1% TFA) was chosen as the combination of mobile phases. Separation was carried out at a constant flow rate of 1.0 uL/min under the following gradient mode:
First step: 5 to 65% gradient mode of solvent B for 50 minutes, and
Second step: 65 to 5% gradient mode of solvent B for 10 minutes.
Each fraction obtained was sequentially subjected to LCQ Advantage mass spectrometer (trade name: manufactured by Thermo Electron Co.).
8. Identification of target protein
Through the operations mentioned above, the list of peptide masses derived from the target protein was obtained. Based on this information, ORF corresponding to the protein was identified by searching the genome sequence database. Commercially available program, MASCOT (manufactured by MATRIX SCIENCE Co.), was used for identification of the protein. S-Dvridvlethvl (O and ESI-TRAP were selected for Fixed
Modifications and Instrument, respectively, as search parameters, and default setting values were used for the other parameters.
9. Search and identification of gene encoding protein regulated by methionine concentration
Among the proteins that showed the increases of expression levels along with the decrease of methionine concentration in the fermentation broth, the protein contained in the spot detected at a molecular weight of 50 kDa and pi of 6.0 was identified according to the method mentioned above. The result showed that the spot corresponded to the protein encoded by Non-Sc type O-acetyl homoserine-O-acetyl serine sulfhydrylase (Non-ScMET17) gene represented by SEQ ID No. 1817. The amino acid sequence of Non-ScMET17 gene was represented by SEQ ID No. 197022.
The results mentioned above indicated that identifying the protein extracted from the bottom fermenting yeast cells using the genome sequence database constructed in the present invention enabled the nucleotide sequence of the ORF corresponding to the protein to be searched. Moreover, since it was possible to search the nucleotide sequence locating upstream of the ORF together with the nucleotide sequence of the ORF, these results also indicated that identification of the protein whose level of expression was regulated by the methionine concentration in the fermentation broth enabled the nucleotide sequence that functions the methionine-concentration responsible promoter to efficiently be searched.
Example 2: Introduction of Non-ScMET17 gene into yeast ceils and expression of
the gene in the cells
1. Cloning of novel O-acetyl homoserine-O-acetyl serine svdfhydrylase gene
Based on the nucleotide sequence information of the gene that encodes the protein identified in Example 1, two primers for amplification of whole length of the gene, Non-ScMET17_for (SEQ ID No: 197023) and Non-ScMET17_rv (SEQ ID No: 197024), were designed. Using these primers, PCR was performed using chromosome DNAof the genome-sequenced strain, Saccharomyces pastorianus Weihenstephan 34/70, as a template and DNA fragment (about 1.3 kb) comprising the whole length of Non-ScMET17 gene was obtained.
The amplified DNA fragment was inserted into pCR2.1-TOPO vector (manufactured by Invitrogen Co.) by TA cloning. The nucleotide sequence of Non-ScMET17 was analyzed by Sanger method (F. Sanger, Science, 14, 1215 (1981)) and
verified.
2. Construction of Non-ScMET17 highly expressed strain
Non-ScMET17/pCR2.1-TOPO was digested with restriction enzymes Sad and NotI to prepare a DNA fragment comprising the entire length of the protein-encoding region of Non-ScMET17. This fragment was ligated to pYCGPYNot pre-treated with the restriction enzymes Sad and NotI, thereby constructing the Non-ScMET17 high expression vector, Non-ScMET17/pYCGPYNot. pYCGPYNot is a YCp-type yeast expression vector, and the gene inserted into the vector is highly expressed by the pyruvate kinase gene PYK1 promoter. This vector includes the geneticin-resistant gene, G418r, as the selectable marker in the yeast, and also includes the ampicillin-resistant gene, Ampr, as the selectable marker in Escherichia coli.
Using the high expression vector prepared by the above method, Saccharomyces pastorianus Weihemtephan 34/70 strain was transformed by the method described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. H07-303475. The transformants were selected on a YPD plate medium (1% yeast extract, 2% polypeptone, 2% glucose and 2% agar) containing 300 mg/L of geneticin.
3. Quantification of the amount of production of EbS in test brewing of beer
Fermentation tests using the parent strain and Non-ScMET17 highly expressed strain obtained in the sections above were performed under the following conditions.
Wort extract concentration : 12%
Wort content: 2 L
Wort dissolved oxygen concentration: about 8 ppm
Fermentation temperature: 15°C constant
Yeast pitching rate: 5 g wet yeast cell/L Wort
The fermentation broth was regularly sampled, and the time-course changes in amount of yeast cell growth (OD 660: Fig. 4) and apparent extract concentration (Fig.5) were observed. Quantification of H2S production during fermentation was performed according to the method described by Takahashi et al. (Brauwissenschaft, 31, 1 (1978)). Measurements of H2S to creat the standard curve were performed used samples containing known concentration of H2S, and then the standard curve for H2S quantification Was created according to the peak areas of detected JfeS. The
fermentation samples were analyzed under the same condition as samples for the standard curve and the amount of H2S contained in the fermentation samples were determined by comparing the peak areas of H2S thereof with the standard curve.
As shown in Table 1, the amount of H2S produced by Non-ScMET17 expressed strain was below detection limit at the end of fermentation, though that by the parent strain was 22.1 ppb. This indicated that the amount of production of H2S was largely reduced by expression of Non-ScMET 17 in a high level.
