초록/요약
Bacillus licheniformis has been widely utilized in the food industry as well as various agricultural industries. In particular, it is a main microorganism of fermented soybeans. In this study, the changes of the metabolome and transcriptome of B. licheniformis KACC15844, which had been isolated from fermented soybeans, were investigated depending on alkaline pH (BP) and a high salt concentration (BS) using an integrated-omics technology, focusing on leucine metabolism. Overall, carbohydrate (glycolysis, sugar transport, and overflow) and amino acid (proline, glycine betaine, and serine) metabolisms were strongly associated with BS, while fatty acid metabolism, malate utilization, and branched-chain amino acid-derived volatiles were closely related to BP, in both gene and metabolic expressions. In particular, in leucine metabolism, the formation of 3-methylbutanoic acid, which has strong cheesy odor notes, was markedly increased in BP compared to the other samples. This study provided information on how specific culture conditions can affect gene expressions and metabolite formations in B. licheniformis using an integrated-omics approach.
