Oenococcus oeni plays a key role in inducing malolactic fermentation in wine. Acid stress is often encountered under wine conditions. However, the lack of systematic studies of acid resistance mechanisms limits the downstream fermentation applications. In this study, the acid responses of O. oeni were investigated by combining transcriptome, metabolome, and genome-scale metabolic modeling approaches. Metabolite profiling highlighted the decreased abundance of nucleotides under acid stress. The gene-metabolite bipartite network showed negative correlations between nucleotides and genes involved in ribosome assembly, translation, and post-translational processes, suggesting that stringent response could be activated under acid stress. Genome-scale metabolic modeling revealed marked flux rerouting, including reallocation of pyruvate, attenuation of glycolysis, utilization of carbon sources other than glucose, and enhancement of nucleotide salvage and the arginine deiminase pathway. This study provided novel insights into the acid responses of O. oeni, which will be useful for designing strategies to address acid stress in wine malolactic fermentation.
