Abstract
To investigate the effect of PEP4 alleles on cellular tolerance of rice wine Saccharomyces cerevisiae against citric acid stress, one PEP4-allele disrupted strain and one PEP4-allele modified along with one PEP4-allele disrupted rice wine Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains were constructed. The PEP4-allele disruption and modification significantly decreased intracellular PrA activity, and a dose-response relationship was found between intracellular Proteinase A activity and number of intact PEP4-alleles. Under cultivation conditions whether with sufficiency or starvation of amino acid nitrogen source, the second PEP4-allele modification was all found beneficial for cellular citric acid stress tolerance of the industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain SWY85. These results allude to PEP4-allele having a physiological role in the metabolic regulations correlated to citric acid tolerance in yeast cell.
