Ethyl carbamate (EC), also known as urethane, is a chemical compound naturally present in wines. Considered potentially dangerous to humans due to the carcinogenic activity exhibited in several animal models, its concentration in alcoholic beverages has been limited by the regulatory authorities of several countries. Ethyl carbamate is naturally produced during the fermentative process. EC is formed spontaneously from the reaction of ethanol with carbomyl compounds released during alcoholic and malolactic fermentation. Although several compounds derived from the metabolism of lactic acid bacteria such as citrulline or carbamyl phosphate are involved in its production, it is urea released by yeast cells during the fermentative process the main precursor for its synthesis. In yeast, urea mainly originates from the metabolism of arginine, one of the most important nitrogen sources found in grape musts. Arginine is cleaved to ornithine and urea, which can further be further degraded via allophanate to provide ammonium. As this last step does not necessarily follow arginine degradation, urea can be progressively secreted into the medium and further re-absorbed when primary nitrogen sources are depleted from the medium. Recent studies have demonstrated the feasibility to reduce EC content by alleviating the repression of genes involved in urea catabolism (Coulon et al. 2006). However, as metabolic engineering strategies are not globally allowed for the development of improved industrial wine yeast strains, alternative approaches should be attempted . In the present work, we show the usefulness of adaptive evolution using non-conventional nitrogen sources to reduce the final concentration of urea in a fermented must. Among others, the broadly employed commercial wine yeast strain EC1118 has been used. The concentration of residual urea measured at the end of fermentations performed with several evolved isolates were halved compared to those obtained for the parental counterpart. Importantly, fermentation profiles in synthetic and natural musts with different nitrogen composition were very similar or even improved with respect to the parental strain.
