Quantitative metaproteomics reveals composition and metabolism characteristics of microbial communities in Chinese liquor fermentation starters

IntroductionDaqu, the Chinese liquor fermentation starter, contains complex microbial communities that are important for the yield, quality, and unique flavor of produced liquor. However, the composition and metabolism of microbial communities in the different types of high-temperature Daqu (i.e., w...

description IntroductionDaqu, the Chinese liquor fermentation starter, contains complex microbial communities that are important for the yield, quality, and unique flavor of produced liquor. However, the composition and metabolism of microbial communities in the different types of high-temperature Daqu (i.e., white, yellow, and black Daqu) have not been well understood.MethodsHerein, we used quantitative metaproteomics based on data-independent acquisition (DIA) mass spectrometry to analyze a total of 90 samples of white, yellow, and black Daqu collected in spring, summer, and autumn, revealing the taxonomic and metabolic profiles of different types of Daqu across seasons.ResultsTaxonomic composition differences were explored across types of Daqu and seasons, where the under-fermented white Daqu showed the higher microbial diversity and seasonal stability. It was demonstrated that yellow Daqu had higher abundance of saccharifying enzymes for raw material degradation. In addition, considerable seasonal variation of microbial protein abundance was discovered in the over-fermented black Daqu, suggesting elevated carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism in autumn black Daqu.DiscussionWe expect that this study will facilitate the understanding of the key microbes and their metabolism in the traditional fermentation process of Chinese liquor production.
