During fermentation, Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolizes sugars and other nutrients to obtain energy for growth and survival, while also modulating these activities in response to cell-environment interactions. Here, differences in S. cerevisiae gene expression were explored over a time course of fermentation and used to differentiate fermentations, using Pinot noir grapes from 15 unique sites. Data analysis was complicated by the fact that the fermentations proceeded at different rates, making a direct comparison of time series gene expression data difficult with conventional differential expression tools. This led to the development of a novel approach combining diffusion mapping with continuous differential expression analysis (termed DMap-DE). Using this method, site-specific deviations in gene expression were identified, including changes in gene expression correlated with the non-Saccharomyces yeast Hanseniaspora uvarum, as well as initial nitrogen concentrations in grape musts. These results highlight novel relationships between site-specific variables and Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene expression that are linked to repeated fermentation outcomes. It was also demonstrated that DMap-DE can extract biologically relevant gene expression patterns from other contexts (e.g., hypoxic response of Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and offers advantages over other data dimensionality reduction approaches, indicating that DMap-DE offers a robust method for investigating asynchronous time series gene expression data.
