Inactivation of MrSir2 in Monascus ruber Influenced the Developmental Process and the Production of Monascus Azaphilone Pigments

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2022
Monascus species are the producers of Monascus azaphilone pigments (MonAzPs) and lipid-lowering component Monacolin K, which have been widely used as food colorant and health products. In this study, silent information regulator 2 (Sir2) homolog (MrSir2) was characterized, and its impacts on the development and MonAzPs production of Monascus ruber were

Metabolites of Monascus ruber in silages

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, 2001
A total of 233 silages were examined and found that Monascus ruber was present in 43 samples with counts between 1 × 103 and 9 × 106 colony‐forming units (CFU)/g (mean: 2 × 105 CFU/g). Monacolin KL and the hydroxy acid monacolin KA were detected by liquid chromatography‐mass spectrometry in 45 and 50 of 233 samples at levels ranging from 25–15 600 and ...

Monascus ruber: A new of onychomycosis in the north of Morocco (Tetouan)

Journal de Mycologie Médicale, 2018
We report a case of onychomycosis caused by Monascus ruber from 57-year old women. The diagnosis was based on culture morphological characteristics on Sabouraud's Dextrose agar one with antibacterial (chloramphenicol) and the other with cycloheximide. The identification of specie was confirmed by DNA sequencing.

A New Pyrrole Compound from Monascus ruber

Chemistry of Natural Compounds, 2019
Phytochemical investigation of the fungus Monascus ruber led to the isolation of one new alkaloid derivative, namely ruberpyrrole (1). The structures were established by extensive spectroscopic characterization and the reported data.

Optimal C:N ratio for the production of red pigments by Monascus ruber

World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2014
The carbon-to-nitrogen (C:N) ratio in the biomass of microfungi tends to be quite different (e.g. 10-15) compared with the C:N ratio in the red pigments (e.g. >20) of the fungus Monascus ruber. Therefore, determining an optimal C:N ratio in the culture medium for maximizing the production of the pigments is important.

A New Azaphilone Metabolite from the Fungus Monascus ruber

Chemistry of Natural Compounds, 2016
Phytochemical investigation of the 95% EtOH extract of red yeast rice fermented with the fungus Monascus ruber led to the isolation and structural elucidation of one new azaphilone derivative, monascuspurone (1). The structure was defined on the basis of UV, IR, 1D and 2D NMR (1H–1H COSY, DEPT, HSQC, HMBC), as well as HR-ESI-MS analyses, and comparison

Suface Features of Monascus ruber van Tieghem Cleistothecia

Botanical Gazette, 1978
Cleistothecial production of Monascus ruber van Tieghem was investigated during delimitation of the antheridium, ascogonium, trichogyne, and ascospore release. Attention was directed to cleistothecial development with formation of branched, sterile, investing hyphae and to the flattening and anastomosis of external cells in the protective wall.

Identification of new red pigments produced by Monascus ruber

Dyes and Pigments, 2007
A new monascus red pigment, which was produced in a defined medium with rice and hydrolytic bean powder was identified by IR, UV, NMR and ESI-MS. It was free pigments linked to lysine by amino group, where nitrogen replaced the pyronoid oxygen without hydrophilic side chain.

Kinetic of orange pigment production from Monascus ruber on submerged fermentation

Bioprocess and Biosystems Engineering, 2016
Pigments produced by species of Monascus have been used to coloring rice, meat, sauces, wines and beers in East Asian countries. Monascus can produce orange (precursor), yellow and red pigments. Orange pigments have low solubility in culture media and when react with amino groups they become red and largely soluble.
