In the industrial production of high-acidity vinegar, the initial ethanol and acetic acid concentrations are limiting factors that will affect acetic acid fermentation. In this study, Komagataeibacter europaeus CGMCC 20445 was used for acetic acid shake flask fermentation at an initial ethanol concentration of 4.3% (v/v). We conducted transcriptome analysis of K. europaeus CGMCC 20445 samples under different acidity conditions to elucidate the changes in differentially expressed genes throughout the fermentation process. We also analyzed the expression of genes associated with acid-resistance mechanisms. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis showed that the differentially expressed genes were enriched in ribosomes, citrate cycle, butanoate metabolism, oxidative phosphorylation, pentose phosphate, and the fatty acid biosynthetic pathways. In addition, this study found that K. europaeus CGMCC 20445 regulates the gene expression levels of cell envelope proteins and stress-responsive proteins to adapt to the gradual increase in acidity during acetic acid fermentation. This study improved the understanding of the acid resistance mechanism of K. europaeus and provided relevant reference information for the further genetic engineering of this bacterium.

Abstract Acetic acid fermentation is an essential step in the production of high-quality fruit vinegar and typically involves the use of acetic acid bacteria (AAB). The present study showed that the high cell mass and acetic acid yields of ethanol-tolerant AAB under high ethanol conditions were related to the high activities and stability of both pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase and PQQ-dependent aldehyde dehydrogenase. Additionally, in acetic acid fermentation with watermelon wine (8 % ethanol), the main organic acids (acetic, tartaric and malic acids) produced by ethanol-tolerant Acetobacter pasteurianus AAB4 were higher than those by conventional A. pasteurianus AS1.41 (1.42-fold, 3.53-fold and 2.12-fold, respectively). Also, the main esters (ethyl acetate and phenylethyl acetate) produced by AAB4 were higher than those by AS1.41 (1.69-fold and 1.48-fold, respectively). In addition, the total sweet and umami free amino acids produced by AAB4 increased significantly. According to sensory analysis, the flavor, taste and overall acceptance score of watermelon vinegar produced by AAB4 were significantly higher than those by AS1.41. Therefore, high ethanol fermentation with ethanol-tolerant AAB improved the flavor and quality of watermelon vinegar, indicating that this technology can be applied to fruit vinegar production.
