Description

本願発明は、酵母エキス抽出後の残渣に酵素を作用させる、調味料の製造方法に関する。 This invention relates to the manufacturing method of a seasoning which makes an enzyme act on the residue after yeast extract extraction.

酵母には核酸、アミノ酸、ペプチドなど豊富な呈味性成分が含まれており、その抽出物である酵母エキスは天然の調味料として多くの食品に用いられている。
酵母エキスの製造方法としては、抽出する酵素や媒体などにより種々の方法が知られており、たとえば特許文献1が挙げられる。
Yeast contains abundant taste components such as nucleic acids, amino acids and peptides, and the yeast extract as an extract thereof is used in many foods as a natural seasoning.
As a method for producing a yeast extract, various methods are known depending on the enzyme or medium to be extracted.

一方、酵母から酵母エキスを抽出した後の残渣はグルカン、マンナン、タンパク質、脂質を主要な成分とするものである。
酵母エキスの残渣を処理する方法、有効利用する方法については複数の公知文献があり、たとえば、特許文献2には、酵母エキス残渣を特定の酵素で可溶化して排水処理する方法が記載されている。特許文献3には酵母エキス残渣を微生物に資化させてマンノースを製造する方法、特許文献4には酵母エキス残渣をアルカリ処理後洗浄して薬理用組成物を得る方法、特許文献5には酵母エキス残渣に細胞壁溶解酵素等を作用させて微生物培養基材を得る方法が記載されている。
On the other hand, the residue after extracting the yeast extract from yeast is mainly composed of glucan, mannan, protein, and lipid.
There are a plurality of known literatures regarding methods for treating and effectively utilizing residues of yeast extract. For example, Patent Document 2 describes a method for solubilizing yeast extract residues with a specific enzyme to treat wastewater. Yes. Patent Document 3 discloses a method for producing mannose by assimilating yeast extract residues to microorganisms, Patent Document 4 discloses a method for obtaining a pharmacological composition by washing yeast extract residues after alkali treatment, and Patent Document 5 discloses yeasts. A method for obtaining a microorganism culture substrate by allowing a cell wall lytic enzyme or the like to act on an extract residue is described.

しかし、いずれの方法も、処理コストに対して生産物の付加価値が低いこと、あるいは各用途における酵母エキス残渣の消費量が少ないことなどから、実用化に至っていないか、酵母エキス残渣の量を劇的に減少させるには至っていない。そのため、酵母エキスの生産に伴って生じる大量の残渣は利用価値が低く、肥飼料などとして用いられた残りは産業廃棄物となっているのが現状である。 However, either method has not been put into practical use because the added value of the product is low relative to the processing cost or the consumption of the yeast extract residue in each application is small. It has not decreased dramatically. For this reason, a large amount of residue generated with the production of yeast extract has a low utility value, and the remainder used as a fertilizer feed is industrial waste.

一方、畜肉、魚肉、大豆、小麦、コーンなどのタンパク質を塩酸加水分解または酵素分解してうま味調味料を取得できることが、特許文献6、7に記載されている。 On the other hand, Patent Documents 6 and 7 describe that umami seasonings can be obtained by hydrolyzing or enzymatically degrading proteins such as livestock meat, fish meat, soybeans, wheat and corn.

解決しようとする課題は、酵母エキスの副産物として過剰に生成する酵母エキス抽出後の残渣又は酵母エキスにならない培養酵母菌体のより付加価値の高い有効利用であり、望ましくは、それらを原料とした風味の良い調味料の取得である。   The problem to be solved is an effective use with higher added value of the residue after extraction of yeast extract that is excessively produced as a by-product of yeast extract or cultured yeast cells that do not become yeast extract. The acquisition of flavorful seasonings.

本発明者らは、研究の結果、酵母エキス抽出後の酵母菌体に対してプロテアーゼを含まない細胞壁溶解酵素を作用させ、作用させた後に加熱処理を加えることで、酵母由来蛋白質含量の高い組成物(以下「酵母タンパク」と言う。)を製造できることを見出した。さらに、該酵母タンパクに対してプロテアーゼを作用させることで、全窒素含量が高く、うま味成分を多く含む調味料が製造でき、このようにして得られた調味料は他の蛋白質加水分解物とは異なる独特の風味をもつことを見出した。 As a result of the research, the inventors have made a composition having a high yeast-derived protein content by causing a cell wall lytic enzyme containing no protease to act on yeast cells after yeast extract extraction, It was found that a product (hereinafter referred to as “yeast protein”) can be produced. Furthermore, by causing a protease to act on the yeast protein, a seasoning having a high total nitrogen content and containing a large amount of umami components can be produced. The seasonings thus obtained are different from other protein hydrolysates. I found it to have a different and unique flavor.

本発明により、従来は産業廃棄物になっていた酵母エキス抽出残渣を調味料の製造原料として有効利用できるようになり、廃棄物の大幅な減量が可能になった。得られた調味料は、全窒素含量が11%以上でコクがあり魚介系の独特で良好な風味をもつものであり、新しい種類の調味液として利用できる。 According to the present invention, the yeast extract extraction residue, which has conventionally been an industrial waste, can be effectively used as a raw material for producing seasonings, and the amount of waste can be greatly reduced. The obtained seasoning has a total nitrogen content of 11% or more, is rich, has a unique and good flavor of seafood, and can be used as a new type of seasoning liquid.

以下に、本発明を具体的に説明する。
本発明の調味料は、酵母菌体から蛋白質含量の高い組成物(酵母タンパク)を取得し、それにプロテアーゼを作用させることにより、製造できる。
The present invention will be specifically described below.
The seasoning of the present invention can be produced by obtaining a composition having high protein content (yeast protein) from yeast cells and allowing protease to act on the composition.

本発明でいう酵母菌体の種類としては、主に酵母エキスの原料として用いられる酵母であり、具体的にはサッカロマイセス・セレビシエやキャンディダ・ユティリスなどが挙げられる。 The kind of yeast cells referred to in the present invention is yeast mainly used as a raw material for yeast extract, and specific examples include Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida utilis.

本発明の酵母菌体としては、第一に酵母エキス抽出後の酵母菌体、すなわち酵母エキス抽出残渣が挙げられる。酵母エキス抽出後の酵母菌体とは具体的には、酵母に熱水、アルカリ性溶液、自己消化、機械的破砕、細胞壁溶解酵素、蛋白質分解酵素、リボヌクレアーゼ、またはデアミナーゼのいずれか一つ以上を用いて抽出処理することにより酵母エキスを抜いた後の残渣である。例として、(株)興人製の「KR酵母」が挙げられる。
このような残渣は一般的に、グルカン、マンナン、蛋白質、脂質を主要な成分とするものであるが、構造的にはグルカン、マンナンと他の成分が複合体となって強固に結合していることが推察され、これに直接プロテアーゼを接触させてもほとんど作用しない。
As the yeast cells of the present invention, first, yeast cells after yeast extract extraction, that is, yeast extract extraction residues may be mentioned. Specifically, yeast cells after extraction of yeast extract use one or more of hot water, alkaline solution, autolysis, mechanical disruption, cell wall lytic enzyme, proteolytic enzyme, ribonuclease, or deaminase. This is the residue after the yeast extract is removed by extraction treatment. An example is “KR yeast” manufactured by Kojin Co., Ltd.
Such residues are generally composed of glucan, mannan, protein, and lipid, but structurally, glucan, mannan and other components are complex and tightly bound. It is speculated that even if it is directly contacted with protease, it hardly acts.

その他、本発明の酵母菌体として、酵母エキスにすることのできない酵母菌体も挙げられる。例えばビール製造工程から排出された肥飼料用の酵母菌体や廃棄物としての酵母菌体でも良い。なお、このような酵母エキス未抽出の酵母菌体から取得した酵母タンパクは、酵母エキス抽出後の酵母菌体から取得したものに比べると、相対的な全窒素含量が低くなる。 In addition, examples of the yeast cells of the present invention include yeast cells that cannot be converted into yeast extracts. For example, yeast cells for manure feed discharged from a beer production process or yeast cells as waste may be used. In addition, the relative total nitrogen content of the yeast protein obtained from such yeast extract unextracted yeast cells is lower than that obtained from yeast cells after yeast extract extraction.

本発明の酵母タンパクを取得する工程として、まず上述の酵母菌体に水を加えて約5〜20%濃度に調整、懸濁した後に、細胞壁溶解酵素を添加し、30℃以上にて1〜6時間作用させる。
ここで添加する細胞壁溶解酵素としてはグルカナーゼとマンナナーゼがあるが、本発明においては、細胞壁溶解酵素がプロテアーゼ活性をほとんど有さないことが重要である。具体的には、ストレプトマイセス属由来のβグルカナーゼ「デナチームGEL」(ナガセケムテックス社製)、Taloromyces属由来のβグルカナーゼ「Filtrase BRX」(DSMジャパン社製)等があり、中でも「デナチームGEL」が最も望ましい。
天野エンザイム社製「ツニカーゼFN」は、グルカナーゼとプロテアーゼの混合物の酵素製剤であり、このようなプロテアーゼを含有する酵素製剤を用いる場合には、酵素製剤中のプロテアーゼが作用しないような温度またはpHで作用させる必要がある。
As a step for obtaining the yeast protein of the present invention, first, after adding water to the above yeast cells to adjust to a concentration of about 5 to 20% and suspending, cell wall lytic enzyme is added, and 1 to 30 ° C. or higher. Let act for 6 hours.
The cell wall lytic enzyme added here includes glucanase and mannanase. In the present invention, it is important that the cell wall lytic enzyme has almost no protease activity. Specifically, there are β-glucanase “Denateam GEL” derived from Streptomyces genus (manufactured by Nagase ChemteX), β-glucanase “Filtrase BRX” (manufactured by DSM Japan) derived from the genus Taloromyces, among others, “Denateam GEL” Is most desirable.
“Tunicase FN” manufactured by Amano Enzyme is an enzyme preparation of a mixture of glucanase and protease. When an enzyme preparation containing such a protease is used, the temperature or pH is such that the protease in the enzyme preparation does not act. It is necessary to act.

酵素反応に次いで、50℃以上、望ましくは50〜100℃、より望ましくは70〜80℃の温度で、5分以上、望ましくは10〜20分の加熱処理を行った後、遠心分離機にて細胞壁構成成分を除去して、蛋白質を主とする画分を取得する。蛋白質を主とする画分をそのまま、又は乾燥して酵母タンパクとする。
上記加熱処理を行わない場合、酵母タンパクの取得量が低くなる。
Following the enzyme reaction, after a heat treatment at a temperature of 50 ° C. or higher, desirably 50 to 100 ° C., more desirably 70 to 80 ° C. for 5 minutes or longer, preferably 10 to 20 minutes, a centrifugal separator is used. Cell wall constituents are removed to obtain a protein-based fraction. The fraction containing mainly protein is used as it is or dried to obtain yeast protein.
When not performing the said heat processing, the acquisition amount of yeast protein will become low.

このようにして得られた酵母タンパクは、乾燥重量当たりの蛋白質含量が60重量%以上となる。酵母タンパクの蛋白質含量は、原料として用いた酵母菌体によって異なり、酵母エキス未抽出の酵母菌体より、酵母エキス抽出後の酵母菌体を用いた場合の方が高い。 The yeast protein thus obtained has a protein content per dry weight of 60% by weight or more. The protein content of the yeast protein varies depending on the yeast cell used as a raw material, and is higher when the yeast cell after extraction of the yeast extract is used than the yeast cell not extracted with the yeast extract.

更に、得られた酵母タンパクの乾燥物に水を加えて約5〜15%濃度に調整、懸濁した後に、タンパク分解酵素を添加し、30℃以上にて3〜10時間作用させ、遠心分離にて上清液としてアミノ酸を主とするうま味成分を多く含む調味料を回収する。さらに必要に応じて、上清液を濃縮、スプレードライして粉末状の調味料とすることができる。 Furthermore, after adding water to the obtained yeast protein dried product to adjust to a concentration of about 5 to 15% and suspending, add a proteolytic enzyme and let it act at 30 ° C. or more for 3 to 10 hours, followed by centrifugation. The seasoning containing a large amount of umami components mainly consisting of amino acids is recovered as a supernatant. Furthermore, if necessary, the supernatant liquid can be concentrated and spray-dried to obtain a powdery seasoning.

酵母菌体を原料として上記の製法により得られた調味料は、乾燥重量当たりの全窒素含量が11%以上と高く、特にペプチドを豊富に含み、コクがあって、魚醤をまろやかにしたような独特で良好な風味をもつ。この風味は、従来からある各種の蛋白酵素分解物、蛋白加水分解物とは異なるユニークなものである。この調味料の使用分野としては、いわゆるタンパク酵素分解物や塩酸加水分解物と同様に、調味液またはその原料として好適に用いることが多いが、特に限定されるものではなく、広く加工食品に使用することができる。 The seasoning obtained by the above-mentioned production method using yeast cells as a raw material has a high total nitrogen content of 11% or more per dry weight, and is particularly rich in peptides, has a rich body, and seems to have a mellow fish sauce. It has a unique and good flavor. This flavor is unique from various conventional protein enzyme degradation products and protein hydrolysates. As for the field of use of this seasoning, it is often used suitably as a seasoning liquid or its raw material in the same manner as so-called protein enzyme degradation products and hydrochloric acid hydrolysates, but is not particularly limited and widely used in processed foods. can do.
