摘要: The influence of pH on the biosynthesis of orange Monascus pigments (OMPs) in Monascus ruber M7 was investigated. Under acidic fermentation conditions, pigment mixtures predominantly rich in OMPs were obtained. HPLC analysis revealed the presence of four orange components (O1-O4) and four yellow components (Y1-Y4) in the mixtures, and the dominant ones were O1 and O3, which accounted for 56.0% to 75.9% of the total pigments in the pH range 3-6. Subsequently, O1 and O3 were identified by LC-DAD-ESI/MS as Rubropunctatin and Monascorubrin, respectively. The yield of OMPs was observed to be inversely dependent on pH. At pH 3, large amounts of OMPs with high purity (79.1%) were accumulated. A real-time quantitative PCR analysis revealed that the expression of genes related to the biosynthesis of OMPs in M. ruber M7 was upregulated at acidic pH as compared to neutral pH, and the variation in the level of expression of these genes with pH was consistent with the production of OMPs. These results indicated that the large accumulation of OMPs under acidic condition involved the acidic pH-induced transcription of genes related to the biosynthesis of OMPs. These results would contribute towards the development of an efficient technology for large-scale production of OMPs.
