Characterization of an hyperpigmenting mutant of Monascus purpureus IB1: identification of two novel pigment chemical structures.

Applied microbiology and biotechnology - 1 Apr 2006

Campoy Sonia, Rumbero Angel, Martín Juan F, Liras Paloma

Abstract excerpt

Monascus purpureus IB1 produces about 50-fold higher levels of azaphilone pigments than M. purpureus NRRL1596. Differently pigmented mutants were obtained from M. purpureus IB1 by nitrosoguanidine treatment. A highly pigmented strain, M. purpureus HP14, was found to lack the formation of the classical yellow and orange azaphilones and was found to produce only about 10% of the red azaphilone pigments. The intense...
