This research aimed to address the issue of aflatoxin B (AFB) contamination, which posed severe health and economic consequences. This study involved exploring unique species resources in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, screening strains capable of degrading AFB. UPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS and NMR were employed to examine the degradation process and identify the structure of the degradation products. Results showed that YUAD7, isolated from yak dung in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, removed 91.7% of AFB from TSB-AFB medium with an AFB concentration of 10 μg/mL (72 h, 37°C, pH 6.8) and over 85% of AFB from real food samples at 10 μg/g (72 h, 37°C), exhibiting strong AFB degradation activity. YUAD7's extracellular secretions played a major role in AFB degradation mediated and could still degrade AFB by 43.16% after boiling for 20 min. Moreover, YUAD7 demonstrated the capability to decompose AFB through processes such as hydrogenation, enzyme modification, and the elimination of the -CO group, resulting in the formation of smaller non-toxic molecules. Identified products include CHO, CHNO, CHO, CHNO, with a structure consisting of dimethoxyphenyl and enoic acid, dimethyl-amino and ethyl carbamate, polyunsaturated fatty acid, and aminomethyl. The results indicated that YUAD7 could be a potentially valuable strain for industrial-scale biodegradation of AFB and providing technical support and new perspectives for research on biodegradation products.
本研究旨在解决黄曲霉毒素B(AFB)污染问题,该污染造成了严重的健康和经济后果。本研究涉及探索青藏高原独特的物种资源,筛选能够降解AFB的菌株。采用超高效液相色谱-四极杆-轨道阱高分辨质谱(UPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS)和核磁共振(NMR)技术研究降解过程并鉴定降解产物的结构。结果表明,从青藏高原牦牛粪便中分离出的YUAD7菌株,在TSB-AFB培养基中(AFB浓度为10μg/mL,72小时,37°C,pH 6.8)可去除91.7%的AFB,在实际食品样品中(10μg/g,72小时,37°C)可去除超过85%的AFB,表现出很强的AFB降解活性。YUAD7的细胞外分泌物在介导的AFB降解中起主要作用,煮沸20分钟后仍能降解43.16%的AFB。此外,YUAD7能够通过氢化、酶修饰和消除-CO基团等过程分解AFB,从而形成较小的无毒分子。鉴定出的产物包括CHO、CHNO、CHO、CHNO,其结构由二甲氧基苯基和烯酸、二甲基氨基和氨基甲酸乙酯、多不饱和脂肪酸以及氨甲基组成。结果表明,YUAD7可能是一种对AFB进行工业规模生物降解的潜在有价值菌株,并为生物降解产物的研究提供技术支持和新的视角。
