Hormonal interactions in Mucor mucedo and Blakeslea trispora.
Evidence is presented that progametangia in both the plus and the minus mating types of Mucor mucedo can be induced by one substance, namely (-)-trisporic acid B. A method is described for the determination of the concentration of the sex factors (trisporone, trisporic acid B, trisporic acid C) in mated cultures of Mucorales by polarography. It can be demonstrated that the amount of plus myceli...
متن کاملRelationship between sexuality and carotene synthesis in Blakeslea trispora.
When stimulated by equivalent amounts of progametangia-inducing hormones, cultures of the minus mating type of Blakeslea trispora produce about the same quantities of carotenoids as mated cultures of the fungus, which suggests that the stimulation of carotene synthesis during the sexual activity of mated cultures is the result of hormonal action. These hormones were isolated and purified. From ...
متن کاملNew apocarotenoids and β-carotene cleavage in Blakeslea trispora.
Mixed cultures of strains of opposite sex ("mated" cultures) of Blakeslea trispora contain trisporic acids and other apocarotenoids, some of which mediate the sexual responses of this fungus and other Mucorales. In mated cultures of the wild-type strains F986 and F921 we identified eleven apocarotenoids: two C(18) trisporoids, three C(15) compounds with a monocyclofarnesane skeleton, a C(13) co...
متن کاملAgro-food wastes utilization by Blakeslea trispora for carotenoids production.
The all-trans-β-carotene is a natural pigment used in various industrial fields (food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, etc) and possesses the higher provitamin A activity, in respect to other carotenoids. All-trans-β-carotene is produced industrially by chemical and biotechnological means. For β-carotene biotechnological production in industrial scale mated cultures of Blakeslea trispora, a heterot...
متن کاملA minor dihydropyran apocarotenoid from mated cultures of Blakeslea trispora.
The heterocyclic C15 apocarotenoid 1 was isolated from mated cultures of the strains F986 (+) and F921 (−) of Blakeslea trispora. This new compound formed during sexual interaction is a minor constituent of the culture media and its structure was elucidated by spectroscopic data, including 2D-NMR. A plausible biosynthetic pathway involving a double degradation of β-carotene, followed...
