Ferulic acid decarboxylase

Huang et al. [70] have evaluated the effects of chlorogenic acids on tumor promotion in an animal study using CD-I mice. Chlorogenic, caffeic and ferulic acids inhibit the induction of ornithine decarboxylase by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). TPA-mediated DNA synthesis has been weakly inhibited, but TPA-induced skin tumor promotion has been markedly inhibited by these compounds. [Pg.937]

Grapes contain several hydroxycinnamic acids, p-coumaric, caffeic, ferulic and sinapic acids, which exist as free acids and esterified with tartaric acid. Saccha-romyces species can take up free acids to produce the corresponding vinyl phenol catalysed by hydroxycinnamate decarboxylase (phenylacrylic acid decarboxylase Padlp) (Fig 8D.11) (Chatonnet et al. 1992b Chatonnet et al. 1993 Edlin et al. 1995). Vinyl phenols are unstable and highly reactive. Dekkera bruxellensis is one of few wine microorganisms that can further reduce vinyl phenols to highly stable ethyl phenols in wine. Vinyl phenols can also react with anthocyanins to form vinyl derivatives, a reaction that is favoured by fermentation yeast having hydroxycinnamate decarboxylase activity (Morata et al. 2006). [Pg.353]

Precursors. Both hydroxycinnamic acids and 4-vinylphenols can lead to the formation of hydroxyphenyl-pyranoanthocyanins. The main hydroxycinnamic acids present in wines are p-coumaric, caffeic, ferulic and sinapic acids. 4-Vinylphenol and 4-vinylguaiacol are volatile phenols associated with off flavors in wine (Eti6vant 1981) and arise from the decarboxylation of p-coumaric and ferulic acid, respectively, via the yeast cinnamate decarboxylase (CD) (Chatonnet et al. 1993). [Pg.449]

Other strains, like VLl, were selected for their low vinyl-phenol production. These compounds possess rather unpleasant pharmaceutical aromas. Above a certain concentration, they dull the aroma of dry white wines (Volume 2, Sections 8.4.2 and 8.4.3). These strains have low cinnamate decarboxylase activity. During alcoholic fermentation, this enzyme catalyzes the partial transformation of p-coumaric and ferulic acid found in juice into vinyl-4-phenol and vinyl-4-gaiacol. Since this enzyme is inhibited by phenolic compounds, only white wines can contain quantities of vinyl-phenols likely to affect their aroma. The use of strains with low cinnamate decarboxylase activity is recommended— particularly for white juices containing high concentrations of hydroxy cinnamic acid. [Pg.429]

With the exception of L. hilgardii, these bacteria decarboxylated p-coumaric acid and/or ferulic acid, with the production of 4-VP and/or 4-VG, respectively, although the relative activities on the two substrates varied between strains. The addition of p-coumaric acid or ferulic acid to cultures of L. pentosus in MRS broth induced hydroxycinnamic acid decarboxylase mRNA within 5 min, and the gene was also induced by the indigenous components of malt wort. [Pg.54]

The overexpression of the PADl (phenylaerylie acid decarboxylase gene) from S. cerevisiae, resulted in an ethanol productivity improvement in the presence of ferulic acid and cinnamic acid. The PADl overexpressing strain also showed 22-25%, 24-29% and 40-45%, faster glucose consumption... [Pg.267]

Volatile phenols originate from hydroxycinnamic acids (ferulic, p-coumaric, or caffeic acid) by the action of hydroxycinnamate decarboxylase enzyme, which turn the hydroxycinnamics acid into vinylphe-nols (Albagnac, 1975 Grando et al., 1993). Then, these compounds are reduced to ethyl derivatives by vinylphenol reductase enzymes characteristic of species, such as Dekkera bruxellensis, Dekkera anomala, Pichia guillermondii, Candida versatilis, Candida halophila, and Candida mannitofaciens (Edlin et al., 1995 1998 Dias et al., 2003 Chatonnet et al., 1992 1995 1997 Dias et al., 2003), apart from very small quantities produced by some yeasts and lactic acid bacteria under peculiar growth conditions (Chatonnet et al., 1995 Barata et al., 2006 ... [Pg.143]

The cinnamate decarboxylase (CD) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is highly specific. These yeasts are incapable of converting benzoic acids into volatile phenols. Only certain acids in the cinnamic series (phenyl-propenoic acids) may be decarboxylated by this microorganism. Among the cinnamic acids in grapes, only ferulic and p-coumaric acids are affected by the CD activity. Caffeic (4,5-dihydroxycinnamic) and sinapic (4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxycinnamic) acids are not decarboxylated by S. cerevisiae. Cinnamic acid and... [Pg.245]
