    Abstract:
    This study sought to provide a theoretical basis for effectively controlling the content of higher alcohols and esters in fermented foods. In this work, isoleucine (Ile) or leucine (Leu) at high levels was used as the sole nitrogen source for a BAT2 mutant and its parental Saccharomyces. cerevisiae 38 to investigate the effects of the addition of amounts of Ile or Leu and BAT2 on the aroma components in the flavor profile using gas chromatography mass spectrometer (GC-MS). The results showed that 2-methyl-butyraldehyde, 2-methyl-1-butanol, and 2-methylbutyl-acetate were the products positively correlated with the Ile addition amount. In addition, 3-methyl-butyraldehyde, 3-methyl-1-butanol, and 3-methylbutyl-acetate were the products positively correlated with Leu addition amount. BAT2 deletion resulted in a significant decline in the yields of 2-methyl-butyraldehyde, 3-methyl-butyraldehyde,2-methyl-1-butanol, and 3-methyl-1-butanol, but also an increase in the yields of 2-methylbutyl-acetate and 3-methylbutyl-acetate. We speculated that BAT2 regulated the front and end of this metabolite chain in a feedback manner. Improved metabolic chain analyses, including the simulated energy metabolism of Ile or Leu, indicated that reducing the added amount of branched-chain amino acids, BAT mutation, and eliminating the role of energy cofactors such as NADH/NAD+ were three important ways to control the content of high alcohols and esters in fermented foods.
