Aspects of photoinduction of carotenogenesis in the fungus Verticillium-Agricinum
An action spectrum for light induced carotenogenesis in V. agaricinum (Link) Corda (ATCC 24668) was obtained by exposing mycelial pads to monochromatic radiation.

A Negative Regulator of Carotenogenesis in Blakeslea trispora
The zygomycete Blakeslea trispora is an important strain for the production of carotenoids on a large scale. However, the regulation mechanism of carotenoid biosynthesis is still not well understood in this filamentous fungus. In the present study, we sought to investigate how crgA influences

A New Era for Using Natural Pigments: The Case of the C50 Carotenoid Called Bacterioruberin
ABSTRACT Haloarchaea are extremophilic microorganisms belonging to the Archaea domain that require high salt concentrations to live, thus inhabiting ecosystems like salty ponds, salty marshes, or extremely salty lagoons. They are more abundant and widely distributed worldwide than initially expected.

SUMMARY Fruit pigmentation mainly controlled by chlorophyll, carotenoids, and flavonoids is an important phenomenon for fortifying the nutritional and esthetic value of humans. Our previous study identified Pseudo‐Response Regulator 2 (PRR2) as a regulator of fruit pigmentation through its association with the c1 locus.

Action Spectrum for Carotenogenesis in Myxococcus xanthus [PDF]
An action spectrum was measured for photoinduction of colored carotenoids in dark-grown, early stationary-phase cells of Myxococcus xanthus . Maximum activity was observed at 405 to 410 nm with subsidiary maxima at 512, 533, 548, 585, and 635 nm.

ABSTRACT We investigated the impact of light intensity, light quality, and temperature on growth rate, fucoxanthin (Fx), chlorophyll a and c (Chl a and c), and total carotenoid (Car) contents of the two marine diatoms Coscinodiscus radiatus and Cylindrotheca sp. Additionally, we analysed antioxidant enzyme activities and lipid peroxidation to determine

Studies on the Carotenogenesis of Rhodotorula sp. Part II
Rh-100によって生合成される各カロチンの分離,確認を行い,β-カロチンが主なカロチンでこの他にα-カロチン,ζ-カロチン, neurosporene, γ-カロチンを見出した.グルコース,グリセリン両培養液でDPA阻害作用を検討したところα-カロチンの阻害が最も大きく, β-カロチンがこれに次ぎ, ζ-カロチン, neurosporeneはDPA低濃度では幾分増加した. Kojic acidはグリセリン培養液ではRh-100の生成するすべてのカロチンの量を増加せしめた.塩化第二鉄の効果はα-カロチン→5, 8-furanoid form oxideであるflavochromeの生成を示した. DPAの阻害作用に対する塩化第二鉄の効果に就いては,グルコース培養液ではDPA単独阻害に比しα-カロチン,

Background Carotenoids and flavonoids are important secondary metabolites in plants, which exert multiple bioactivities and benefits to human health. Although the genes that encode carotenogenesis and flavonoid biosynthetic enzymes are well characterized,
