RESUMO
This research paper focuses on the application of the "Design-Build-Test-Learn" framework to design and evaluate a synthetic microbial community aimed at studying the impact of Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) interactions and fitness on the formation of biogenic amines (BAs) in Chinese rice wine (CRW). The study reveals a close correlation between the assembly model of LAB and the accumulation of BAs in CRW, and multiple interactions were observed between amine-producing and non-amine-producing LAB, including commensalism, amensalism, and competition. The commensalism among amine-producing LAB was found to promote BAs accumulation through metabolic cross-feeding of amino acids. Moreover, the higher-order interaction community was designed to regulate the BAs formation effectively. For instance, the interference of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (ACBC271) resulted in the elimination of amine-producing LAB viability, resulting in a 22% decrease (not exceeding 43.54 mg/L) in the total amount of BAs. Simulation of community dynamics models further suggests that LAB with quantitative social interactions can effectively control LAB accumulation in CRW by forecasting fluctuation in BAs generation through fitness competition and metabolic interference. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the complex interaction networks within microbial communities in traditional fermentation ecosystems. It also proposes a novel approach for quality control of nitrogen food safety factors in fermented foods.
