Overexpression of PSY1 increases fruit skin and flesh carotenoid content and reveals associated transcription factors in apple (Malus × domestica)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Knowledge of the transcriptional regulation of the carotenoid metabolic pathway is still emerging and here, we have misexpressed a key biosynthetic gene in apple to highlight potential transcriptional regulators of this pathway. We overexpressed phytoene

Comparison of Different Methods for Carotenoid Extraction from Dunaliella Salina [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Nutrition Sciences, 2021
Background: Dunaliella salina (D. salina) is a unicellular marine alga known for its carotenoid ingredient. Carotenoid has been used in food industry as a coloring additive and as an antioxidant.

Fruit Qualities of Interspecific Hybrid and First Backcross Generations between Red Raspberry and Rubus parvifolius

open access: yesJournal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2021
Interspecific hybridization is useful in raspberry (Rubus idaeus L. ssp. idaeus) breeding to introgression of traits such as heat or cold tolerance, and excellent fruit qualities. Rubus L.

Twisted carotenoids do not support efficient intramolecular singlet fission in the orange carotenoid protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Singlet exciton fission is the spin-allowed generation of two triplet electronic excited states from a singlet state. Intramolecular singlet fission has been suggested to occur on individual carotenoid molecules within protein complexes, provided the conjugated backbone is twisted out-of-plane.

Phylogenetic and evolutionary patterns in microbial carotenoid biosynthesis are revealed by comparative genomics. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: Carotenoids are multifunctional, taxonomically widespread and biotechnologically important pigments. Their biosynthesis serves as a model system for understanding the evolution of secondary metabolism.

Dynamical simulations of carotenoid photoexcited states using density matrix renormalization group techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
We present a dynamical simulation scheme to model the highly correlated excited state dynamics of linear polyenes. We apply it to investigate the internal conversion processes of carotenoids following their photoexcitation. We use the extended Hubbard-Peierls model, $\hat{H}_{\textrm{UVP}}$, to describe the $\pi$-electronic system coupled to nuclear ...
