Carotenoid biosynthesis is associated with low-temperature adaptation in Rhodosporidium kratochvilovae [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2022
Background Low temperatures greatly limit the growth of microorganisms. Low-temperature adaptation in microorganisms involves multiple mechanisms. Carotenoids are naturally occurring lipid-soluble pigments that act as antioxidants and protect cells and ...

Perturbations in the Carotenoid Biosynthesis Pathway in Tomato Fruit Reactivate the Leaf-Specific Phytoene Synthase 2

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The accumulation of the red carotenoid pigment lycopene in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit is achieved by increased carotenoid synthesis during ripening.

Carotenoid Biosynthesis in Fusarium [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2017
Many fungi of the genus Fusarium stand out for the complexity of their secondary metabolism. Individual species may differ in their metabolic capacities, but they usually share the ability to synthesize carotenoids, a family of hydrophobic terpenoid ...

Co-chaperoning of chlorophyll and carotenoid biosynthesis by ORANGE family proteins in plants

open access: yesMolecular Plant, 2023
Chlorophylls and carotenoids are essential photosynthetic pigments. Plants spatiotemporally coordinate the needs of chlorophylls and carotenoids for optimal photosynthesis and fitness in response to diverse environmental and developmental cues.

Carotenoids and Their Biosynthesis in Fungi [PDF]

open access: goldMolecules, 2022
Carotenoids represent a class of pigmented terpenoids. They are distributed in all taxonomic groups of fungi. Most of the fungal carotenoids differ in their chemical structures to those from other organisms. The general function of carotenoids in heterotrophic organisms is protection as antioxidants against reactive oxygen species generated by ...

Heterologous production of novel and rare C30-carotenoids using Planococcus carotenoid biosynthesis genes

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2021
Background Members of the genus Planococcus have been revealed to utilize and degrade solvents such as aromatic hydrocarbons and alkanes, and likely to acquire tolerance to solvents.

The Y locus encodes a REPRESSOR OF PHOTOSYNTHETIC GENES protein that represses carotenoid biosynthesis via interaction with APRR2 in carrot [PDF]

open access: greenThe Plant Cell
Little is known about the factors regulating carotenoid biosynthesis in roots. In this study, we characterized DCAR_032551, the candidate gene of the Y locus responsible for the transition of root color from ancestral white to yellow during carrot ...

Temperature regulation of carotenoid accumulation in the petals of sweet osmanthus via modulating expression of carotenoid biosynthesis and degradation genes

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2022
Background Temperature is involved in the regulation of carotenoid accumulation in many plants. The floral color of sweet osmanthus (Osmanthus fragrans Lour.) which is mainly contributed by carotenoid content, is affected by temperature in autumn ...

Papaya CpbHLH1/2 regulate carotenoid biosynthesis-related genes during papaya fruit ripening

open access: yesHorticulture Research, 2019
The ripening of papaya is a physiological and metabolic process associated with accumulation of carotenoids, alternation of flesh color and flavor, which depending on genotype and external factors such as light and hormone.
