The aim of this study was to establish one of the most efficient biocatalytic processes for turanose production by applying a robust (AS) mutant developed through site-directed mutagenesis. A gene encoding the amylosucrase of (AS) was cloned and used as a mutagenesis template. Among the AS variants generated by the site-directed point mutation, four different single-point mutants (P200R, V202I, Y265F, and Y414F) were selected to create double-point mutants, among which AS displayed the greatest turanose productivity without losing the thermostability of native AS. The turanose yield of AS reached 89.3% at 50 °C after 6 h with 1.0 M sucrose + 1.0 M fructose. AS produced significantly more turanose than AS-wild type (WT) by 2 times and completed the reaction faster by another 2 times. Thus, turanose productivity (82.0 g/(L h)) by AS was highly improved from 28.1 g/(L h) of AS-WT with 2.0 M sucrose + 0.75 M fructose.

The prevalence and severity of gastrointestinal diseases were increased with age. In this study, the intestinal protective effects of Lactococcus lactis HF08 (HF08) and its derived postbiotic (P-HF08) on D-gal-induced aging mice and D-gal/DSS-induced aging colitis mice were investigated. In D-gal-induced aging mice, both HF08 and P-HF08 alleviated aging-related intestinal barrier dysfunction, inflammatory status, and gut microbiota disorder.

In this study, fresh cheeses produced with four novel probiotics (Lactobacillus casei PB-LC39, Lactobacillus rhamnosus PB-LR76, Lactobacillus helveticus HH-LH17, and Lactobacillus plantarum HH-LP56) were named as LC, LR, LH, and LP, respectively. SPME-GC-MS and untargeted metabolomics were used to compare and analyze the flavor quality, metabolites and metabolic pathways of LC, LR, LH and LP, and the potential function of differential metabolites was emphasized. The results demonstrated that the incorporation of probiotics resulted in a significant increase in the number of volatile flavor compounds and varying flavor profiles within the cheese.

Turanose (α-d-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)-α-d-fructose) is a rare disaccharide that is a potential low-calorigenic sweetener. This novel sucrose isomer has been efficiently synthesized by the amylosucrase from Bifidobacterium thermophilum (BtAS). In this study, we aimed to enhance turanose biosynthesis by designing a BtAS variant (BtAS-G374S) with improved thermal stability.
