ABSTRACT

Nature is harnessed since ancient times to fulfill human needs, and yeast culture has been mastered for bakery, brewery, or the preparation of beverages. In this context, the two recently discovered yeast species Starmerella reginensis and Starmerella kourouensis, belonging to a genus related to fermentative activities in the literature, were explored via untargeted metabolomics approaches. Ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography hyphenated with tandem mass spectrometry and a deep investigation of molecular networks and spectral data allowed the annotation of, respectively, 439 and 513 metabolites for S. reginensis and S. kourouensis, with approximatively 30% compound annotations and 40% chemical class annotations for both yeast strains. These analyses and Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry accurate metabolic profiles unveiled a rich content of alkaloids, lipids, amino acids, and terpenoids for S. reginensis. S. kourouensis presents a similar profile with more sulfated compounds. In short, these results enrich the current knowledge about Starmerella yeast secondary metabolites and reveal their significant structural diversity of small molecules.

ABSTRACT

Natural products are a reliable source of bioactive molecules and represent an industrial and pharmaceutical stake. Indeed, the model yeast species Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a well-known eukaryotic organism largely used as a biotechnological tool, but still a topical subject of study. In this work, the exploration of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is taken further through an untargeted metabolomics workflow. The aim is to enrich databases and bring new information about the standard S. cerevisiae strain in a given medium. Analytical methods and bioinformatics tools were combined in a high-throughput methodology useable to dereplicate many types of biological extracts and cartography secondary metabolites. Ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) analyses were carried out and spectral data were pre-processed to build molecular networks. Annotations were attributed to compounds through comparison with databases and manual investigation of networks. Ultra-high-resolution Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS) brought additional information thanks to a higher dynamic range and enhanced UHPLC-MS/MS results by unveiling ambiguities and bringing accurate molecular formulae. Therefore, accurate and reliable annotated features resulted from the UHPLC-MS/MS data while FTICR-MS provided an overall cartography of metabolites thanks to van Krevelen diagrams. Various small molecules such as amino acids derivatives and indole alkaloids have been determined for the first time in this yeast. The complementarity of FTICR-MS and UHPLC-MS/MS for secondary metabolite annotation brought this new mapping of S. cerevisiae.
