Abstract | Anaerobic alcoholic fermentation, particularly in high-sugar environments, presents metabolic challenges for yeasts. Crabtree-positive yeasts, including Saccharomyces cerevisiae, prefer fermentation even in the presence of oxygen. These yeasts rely on internal NAD+ recycling and extracellular assimilation of its precursor, nicotinic acid (vitamin B3), rather than de novo NAD+ production. Surprisingly, nicotinic acid assimilation is poorly characterized, even in S. cerevisiae. This study elucidated the timing of nicotinic acid uptake during grape juice-like fermentation and its impact on NAD(H) levels, the NAD+/NADH ratio, and metabolites produced. Complete uptake of extracellular nicotinic acid occurred premid-exponential phase, thereafter small amounts of vitamin B3 were exported back into the medium. Suboptimal levels of nicotinic acid were correlated with slower fermentation and reduced biomass, disrupting redox balance and impeding NAD+ regeneration, thereby affecting metabolite production. Metabolic outcomes varied with nicotinic acid concentrations, linking NAD+ availability to fermentation efficiency. A model was proposed encompassing rapid nicotinic acid uptake, accumulation during cell proliferation, and recycling with limited vitamin B3 export. This research enhances the understanding of nicotinic acid uptake dynamics during grape juice-like fermentation. These insights contribute to advancing yeast metabolism research and have profound implications for the enhancement of biotechnological practices and the wine-making industry. |
