RESUMO
The cultivation and enrichment of different soils in a vineyard yielded 95 yeast species. Among them, seven strains capable of producing ß-glucosidases were identified using the aescin colorimetric method. One non-Saccharomyces yeast strain was isolated from a plate containing lysine and identified using internal transcription (ITS) as Candida cf. sorbosivorans (C. cf. sorbosivorans), which was named Candida cf. sorbosivorans X1. Additionally, the enzymatic characteristics of the ß-glucosidases produced by this strain were investigated. The ß-glucosidases generated by C. cf. sorbosivorans X1 displayed high enzymatic activity and enzyme-activity retention in a pH range of 3.0 to 5.4 and at temperatures of 30 °C to 35 °C. Using non-targeted metabolomics methods, we investigated the alterations in metabolites during the fermentation of mango juice. The strain C. cf. sorbosivorans X1 demonstrated activity against phenols and terpenes. In the fermented mango juice (X1FMJ), we identified 41 differential metabolites. These included 14 esters, 4 hydrocarbons, 3 aldehydes, 5 ketones, 4 terpenoids, 4 alcohols, 1 aromatic hydrocarbon, 2 amines, 1 acid, and 3 heterocyclic compounds. The metabolic pathways of these differential metabolites were analyzed, revealing four key pathways: tyrosine metabolism, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, monoterpene biosynthesis, and α-linolenic acid metabolism, which promoted the formation of aroma compounds in the fermented mango juice.
