Culture conditions for yellow pigment formation byMonascus sp. KB 10 grown on cassava medium

An isolate ofMonascus, from a commercial, fermented soybean curd (sufu) was grown on a cassava medium. With medium at an initial pH of 7.0 an orange-red pigmentation was produced but with an initial pH below 4, a light golden pigment was obtained. A medium containing, w/v, 3% cassava starch, 0.4% peptone and 0.1% glutamic acid, with an initial pH of 2.5 was optimal for the production of this yellow pigment, which had a single maximum absorption spectrum at 330 nm. The spectroscopic characterization of the purified yellow pigments demonstrated a monascin-ankaflavin-monascorubrin skeleton.B. Yongsmith, W. Tabloka and W.

Interaction of major coat color gene functions in mice as studied by chemical analysis of eumelanin and pheomelanin

Melanocytes produce two chemically distinct types of melanin pigments, eumelanin and pheomelanin. These pigments can be quantitatively analyzed by acidic permanganate oxidation or reductive hydrolysis with hydriodic acid to form pyrrole-2,3,5-tricarboxylic acid or aminohydroxyphenylalanine, respectively. About 30 coat color genes in mice have been cloned, and functions of many of those genes have been elucidated. However, little is known about the interacting functions of these loci. In this study, we used congenic mice to eliminate genetic variability, and analyzed eumelanin and pheomelanin contents of hairs from mice mutant at one or more of the major pigment loci, i.e., the albino (C) locus that encodes tyrosinase, the slaty (Slt) locus that encodes tyrosinase-related protein 2 (TRP2 also known as dopachrome tautomerase, DCT), the brown (B) locus that encodes TRP1, the silver (Si) locus that encodes a melanosomal silver protein, the agouti (A) locus that encodes agouti signaling protein (ASP), the extension (E) locus that encodes melanocortin-1 receptor, and the mahogany (Mg) locus that encodes attractin. We also measured total melanin contents after solubilization of hairs in hot Soluene-350 plus water. Hairs were shaved from 2-3-month-old congenic C57BL/6J mice. The chinchilla (c(ch)) allele is known to encode tyrosinase, whose activity is about one third that of wild type (C). Phenotypes of chinchilla (c(ch)/c(ch)) mice that are wild type or mutant at the brown and/or slaty, loci indicate that functioning TRP2 and TRP1 are necessary, in addition to high levels of tyrosinase, for a full production of eumelanin. The chinchilla allele was found to reduce the amount of pheomelanin in lethal yellow and recessive yellow mice to less than one fifth of that in congenic yellow mice that were wild type at the albino locus. This indicates that reduction in tyrosinase activity affects pheomelanogenesis more profoundly compared with eumelanogenesis. Hairs homozygous for mutation at the slaty locus contain 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (DHICA)-poor melanin, and this chemical phenotype was retained in hairs that were mutant at both the brown locus and the slaty locus. Hair from mice mutant at the brown locus, but not at the slaty locus, do not contain DHICA-poor melanin. This indicates that the proportion of DHICA in eumelanin is determined by TRP2, but not by TRP1. Mutation at the slaty locus (Slt(lt)) was found to have no effect on pheomelanogenesis, supporting a role of TRP2 only in eumelanogenesis. The mutation at silver (si) locus showed an effect similar to brown, a partial suppression of eumelanogenesis. The mutation at mahogany (mg) locus partially suppressed the effect of lethal yellow (Ay) on pheomelanogenesis, supporting a role of mahogany in interfering with agouti signaling. These results show that combination of double mutation study of congenic mice with chemical analysis of melanins is useful in evaluating the interaction of pigment gene functions.     

Linkage among the R, Y and BI loci in table beet

The primary pigments in table beet are the betalains, which are comprised of the red-violet betacyanins and the yellow betaxanthins. The presence of dominant alleles at two linked loci (R and Y) condition the qualitative production of betalain pigment in the beet plant. Red-pigmented roots are observed only in the presence of dominant alleles at both the R and Y loci, while white roots are conditioned by recessive alleles at the Y locus, and yellow roots by the genotype rrY-. A newly described gene ’blotchy’ (bl) conditions a blotchy or irregular pigment patterning in either red or yellow roots. The objective of the present investigation was to characterize the linkage relationships between the R and Y lociand the bl gene by evaluating segregating progenies developed from a series of matings of colored and white table beets. Due to epistatic interactions among the R, Y, and bl loci, algorithms for estimating linkage were developed using maximum-likelihood estimators for each cross. The two-point linkage estimate between the R and Y loci pooled over eight crosses was 7.4±1.7 cM. Segregation data indicated the bl gene is linked to the R and Y loci.The recombination fraction between R and bl was estimated from a pooled sample of four crosses at 16.7±10.8 cM. The most-likely gene order was R-Y-bl. These data demonstrate that the bl gene is a third locus conditioning betalain pigment production in table beet. The R-Y-bl genomic region is therefore important in the genetic control of betalain biosynthesis in table beet. Received: 18 May 1999 / Accepted: 29 August 1999     

PIGMENTS OF THE RETINA : II. SEA ROBIN,SEA BASS,AND SCUP

1. Visual purple from the sea robin, sea bass, and scup is almost identical spectroscopically with that from frogs. The interrelations of this pigment with vitamin A and retinene are also the same as in the frog. 2. In strong acids or at pH > 11, the visual yellow of sea robin retinas is converted irreversibly into a pH indicator, yellow in acid and almost colorless in alkaline solution. Unlike neutral visual yellow, the indicator is not removed to form either vitamin A or visual purple. In the ammoniacal retina the reversion of visual yellow itself to purple is accelerated. 3. The combined pigment epithelium and choroid layer in these fishes contain vitamin A, flavine, and an unidentified xanthophyll.
