The Dynamical Properties of Three Different Variants of the Orange Carotenoid Protein: A Quasielastic Neutron Scattering Study

Crystals
Besides a well-adapted structure, proteins often require a specific dynamical flexibility to undergo conformational changes in order to carry out their function.

Medium optimization for cultivation of carotenoid hyperproducing Phaffia rhodozyma mutant HT-5FO1C

, 1996
For batch cultivation, the optimal medium for the carotenoid hyperproducing Phaffia rhodozyma mutant HT-5FO1C contained 25 g/l glucose, 4 g/l yeast extract, 1 g/l urea, and 0.3 g/l monosodium phosphate.

Dietary astaxanthin levels affect colour, growth, carotenoid digestibility and the accumulation of specific carotenoid esters in the Giant Tiger Shrimp, Penaeus monodon [PDF]

, 2017
The carotenoid astaxanthin (Axn) plays a vital role in shrimp pigmentation, with direct influence on product quality, and forms a significant cost component of shrimp aquaculture feeds.

Mutant Calreticulin Requires Both Its Mutant C-terminus and the Thrombopoietin Receptor for Oncogenic Transformation [PDF]

, 2016
Somatic mutations in calreticulin (CALR) are present in approximately 40% of patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), but the mechanism by which mutant CALR is oncogenic remains unclear.

Identification and characterization of the yls mutation in rice (Oryza sativa L.) with lower photosynthetic pigment content

Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2016
Normal chloroplast development in rice is essential for photosynthesis and yield potential. To explore the physiological and molecular mechanism of chloroplast development, we isolated the rice mutant yls, which has yellow-green leaves at the rice ...

Regulation of tomato fruit ripening [PDF]

, 2009
Fruit ripening is a sophisticatedly orchestrated developmental process, unique to plants, that results in major physiological and metabolic changes, ultimately leading to fruit decay and seed dispersal. Because of their strong impact on fruit nutritional

Analysis of a putative crtW gene of Myxococcus xanthus [PDF]

Carotenoids are produced by all photosynthetic organisms and a large number of bacteria and fungi. They are responsible for a lot of pigmentation in nature, as well as often playing an essential role in the provision of light protection to cells and ...

Regulation of carotenoid biosynthesis in banana fruit [PDF]

, 2015
This thesis investigated the basis for massive differences in provitamin A carotenoid content in banana fruits. Rather than gene expression levels, carotenoid storage capacity and product degradation explained much of the differences.

Enhancing Lycopene Biosynthesis in Cereibacter sphaeroides DT.1: Effects of Glutamate and Proline Supplementation and Fermentation Optimization

Fermentation
Lycopene is a natural carotenoid with antioxidation properties. The objective of the present study was to investigate the roles of glutamate and proline in lycopene biosynthesis in a newly isolated purple non-sulfur bacterium Cereibacter sphaeroides DT.1,
