RESUMO
This present study tested the extent to which 2% w/v trehalose enhanced the proteins expression profile of Hanseniaspora uvarum Y3. Furthermore, it explored the relative gene expression of stilbene synthase (StSy), one of the vital defense-related genes found in the skin of grapes. The proteomics profile revealed that 29 proteins were differentially expressed out of which 26 were significantly up-regulated and 3 were download-regulated. The pathogenesis related (PR) and other protein spots were visible at 97.4â¯kDa and 14.4â¯kDa. Peroxiredoxin TSA1 and superoxide dismutase were the main proteins involved in defense response and both proteins were significantly up-regulated. The carbohydrate and energy metabolism proteins were also significantly up-regulated. The results revealed that the treatments were associated with substantial increase in peroxidase activity compared to the control. StSy relative gene expression level was observed to increase by 2.5-fold in grapes treated with the pre-enhanced H. uvarum compared to the control.

In this work, we performed for the first time a proteomic approach to the processes induced by long-term potassium starvation in the halotolerant yeast Debaryomyces hansenii. The proteomic profile under this ionic stress conditions shows that important changes in gene expression take place as an adaptive response. We found a significant protein expression repression as well as metabolic changes such as the inhibition of the upper part of the glycolysis, the amino acid synthesis, and the Krebs cycle. On the other hand, genes related to stress responses, protein degradation, and sterols synthesis were upregulated in response to potassium deprivation. The findings in this study provide important information about how this particular yeast copes with ionic stress at molecular levels, which might further enrich the global understanding of salt tolerance processes in eukaryal systems and moreover highlighting the importance of the 'omics' approaches as a complement to the classical physiological studies.
