The effect of different methanol concentrations and temperatures on the extraction of mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) in algae and Zooplankton

Fundamental and Applied Limnology, 2002
Mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) are a family of intracellular UV-absorbing compounds involved in the protection of aquatic organisms against solar UV radiation. These compounds have been identified and quantified in many marine and freshwater organisms, however, no standard method to analyze these compounds is available.

Screening mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) as potential inhibitors of a malaria-associated cysteine protease falcipain-2

Computers in Biology and Medicine
A cysteine protease, falcipain-2 (FP-2) belonging to papain family is an important haemoglobinase of erythrocytic parasite Plasmodium falciparum. FP2 inhibitors mainly functions by blocking haemoglobin hydrolysis thereby inhibiting parasite development, promoting FP2 as an applicable target to combat malaria. A library of MAAs was prepared and screened

Palythine–threonine, a major novel mycosporine-like amino acid (MAA) isolated from the hermatypic coral Pocillopora capitata

Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology B: Biology, 2009
Using a high-resolution reverse-phase liquid chromatography method we found that the tissues of the hermatypic coral Pocillopora capitata (collected in Santiago Bay, Mexico) contain a high diversity of primary and secondary mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) typical of some reef-building coral species: mycosporine-glycine, shinorine, porphyra-334 ...

A review on mycosporine-like amino acids (MAA) content in the red macroalgae from the Adriatic Sea

Mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) are low-molecular-weight secondary metabolites found in various aquatic organisms, particularly in marine macroalgae. Research has identified MAAs in 572 species of marine macroalgae, predominantly within the Rhodophyta division (red macroalgae).

Study on mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) in cyanobacteria: A biochemical, bioinformatics and molecular biology approach

2009
Das Cyanobakterium Anabaena variabilis PCC 7937 synthetisiert nur eine einzige MAA, das Shinorin. Obwohl sich nach 72 h Exposition unter einem 395-nm- oder einem 320-nm-cut-off-Filter bereits eine signifikante Steigerung der MAA-Induktion ergab, war diese noch einmal signifikant erhöht, wenn die Zellen unter einem 295-nm-cut-off-Filter exponiert wurden.
