Investigations into Chemical Components from Monascus purpureus with Photoprotective and Anti-Melanogenic Activities

Journal of Fungi, 2021
Monascus species are asexually or sexually reproduced homothallic fungi that can produce a red colorant, specifically the so-called red yeast rice or Anka, which is used as a food ingredient in Asia. Traditional experiences of using Monascus for treating

Biopigments from Monascus: strains selection, citrinin production and color stability

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2005
Fungi form the genus Monascus are a promising source for natural color additives. However, before effectively applying Monascus to foods, it is important to select strains which produce large amounts of biopigments but little or no citrinin, a mycotoxin ...

Microbial community modulates growth of symbiotic fungus required for stingless bee metamorphosis.

PLoS ONE, 2019
The Brazilian stingless bee Scaptotrigona depilis requires the brood cells-associated fungus Zygosaccharomyces sp. as steroid source for metamorphosis. Besides the presence of Zygosaccharomyces sp., other fungi inhabit S.

Metabolic Regulation of Two pksCT Gene Transcripts in Monascus ruber Impacts Citrinin Biosynthesis

Journal of Fungi, 2023
Citrinin (CIT), a secondary metabolite produced by the filamentous fungi Monascus species, exhibits nephrotoxic, hepatotoxic, and carcinogenic effects in mammals, remarkably restricting the utilization of Monascus-derived products.

Phylogeny of rock-inhabiting fungi related to Dothideomycetes [PDF]

, 2009
The class Dothideomycetes (along with Eurotiomycetes) includes numerous rock-inhabiting fungi (RIF), a group of ascomycetes that tolerates surprisingly well harsh conditions prevailing on rock surfaces. Despite their convergent morphology and physiology,
