Abstract

Tibet kefir grain (TKG) formation is mainly dependent on the aggregation of lactobacillus and yeasts. The interaction of surface layer protein (SLP) and yeast mannan plays an important role in mediating the co-aggregation of Lactobacillus kefiri with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The interaction mechanism of the two was researched through multispectral spectroscopy, morphology observation and silico approaches. Fluorescence spectra data revealed that mannan was bound to SLP through a spontaneous binding process. The particle size of the binding complex increased as the mannan concentration increased. Synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy and circular dichroism (CD) spectra showed the conformational and microenvironment alteration of SLP treated with mannan. Molecular docking results indicated that hydrophobic interactions played major roles in the formation of SLP-mannan complexes. These findings provide a deeper insight into the interactions of protein and polysaccharide, and this knowledge is valuable in the application of SLP and mannan in co-fermentation systems.
