Torulene and torularhodin are two of the principal carotenoids in Sporidiobolus pararoseus and have a similar structure to that of lycopene. The present study was to elucidate the anti-cancer activity of torulene and torularhodin in vivo with lycopene as a control. Nude mice were orally supplemented every day with a low or high dose [9 or 18 mg/kg body

Carotenoids represent a class of molecules valuable for food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries. As a microbial carotenoid, torulene possesses potential health-promoting effects in human. However, few studies have been conducted to investigate optimal condition for its large-scale commercial production to date.

Factors influencing production of the monocyclic carotenoid torulene in recombinant Escherichia coli were investigated by modulating enzyme expression level, culture conditions, and engineering of the isoprenoid precursor pathway. The gene dosage of in vitro evolved lycopene cyclase crtY2 significantly changed the carotenoid profile.

Identification of the gene responsible for torulene cleavage in the Neurospora carotenoid pathway
Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2007Torulene, a C(40) carotene, is the precursor of the end product of the Neurospora carotenoid pathway, the C(35) xanthophyll neurosporaxanthin. Torulene is synthesized by the enzymes AL-2 and AL-1 from the precursor geranylgeranyl diphosphate and then cleaved by an unknown enzyme into the C(35) apocarotenoid.

Production of Torularhodin, Torulene, and β-Carotene by Rhodotorula Yeasts
Methods in Molecular Biology, 2012Yeasts of the genera Rhodotorula are able to synthesize different pigments of high economic value like β-carotene, torulene, and torularhodin, and therefore represent a biotechnologically interesting group of yeasts. However, the low production rate of pigment in these microorganisms limits its industrial application.

The major carotenoids (β-carotene, γ-carotene, torulene, and torularhodin) were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography, with torulene present in the largest amount (167.0 μg/g), followed by torularhodin (113.4 μg/g), β-carotene (52.1 μg/g) and γ-carotene (15.4 μg/g).

Carotenoids are a group of tetraterpene pigments widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. Torulene, torularhodin, and β-carotene, three principal carotenoids synthesized by Rhodotorula glutinis ZHK, possess strong health-promoting properties such as antioxidant, provitamin A, and antitumor.

The current study was designed to elucidate the cytoprotective effects and possible mechanisms of torulene and torularhodin on hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced oxidative stress damage in human prostate stromal cells (WPMY-1). After treated with H2O2, a notable decrease was appeared in cell viability, yet the decrease was attenuated when cells were ...

The relative free radical scavenging activity of beta-carotene, lycopene, and torulene toward OOH radicals has been studied using density functional theory. Hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) and radical adduct formation (RAF) mechanisms have been considered.
