Popis: Enterococcus faecium (E. faecium) is widely used in foods and is known as a probiotic to treat or prevent diarrhea in pets and livestock. However, the poor resistance of E. faecium to high temperature processing procedures limits its use. Strain domestication is a low-cost and effective method to obtain high-temperature-resistant strains. In this study, heat treatment was performed from 45 °C to 70 °C and the temperature was gradually increased by 5 °C every 3 days. After domestication, the survival rates of the high temperature adaptation strain RS047-wl under 65 °C water bath for 40 min was 11.5 times higher than WT RS047. Moreover, the saturated fatty acid (SFA) contents in cell membrane and the cell volume significantly increased in the RS047-wl. The combined transcriptomic, metabolomic, and proteomics analysis results showed a significant enhancement of cell wall and membrane synthesis ability in the RS047-wl. In conclusion, one of the main factors contributing to the improved high temperature resistance of RS047-wl was its enhanced ability to synthesize cell wall and membrane, which helped maintain normal cell morphology. Developing a high-temperature-resistant strain and understanding its mechanism enables it to adapt to high temperatures. This lays the groundwork for its future development and application.
