Factors influencing pigment production in a mutant strain of Serratia marcescens.
A high frequency of mutations affecting color production is characteristic of the HY strain of Serratia marcescens. After ultraviolet irradiation, mutants ranging from white, through pink and orange, to deep red shades darker than the wild type can be obtained (Labrum and Bunting, 1953). Many of the white and pink mutants emit diffusible substances which can be utilized by other color mutants g...
متن کاملProdigiosin production by Serratia marcescens UCP 1549 using renewable-resources as a low cost substrate.
A new strain of Serratia marcescens UCP1459 isolated from a semi-arid soil produced the natural red pigment prodigiosin, characterized by an uncommon pyrrolylpyrromethane skeleton. Prodigiosin is a promising drug due to its reported antifungal, immunosuppressive and anti-proliferative activities. The objective of this work was to indentify a suitable medium to simultaneously enhance S. marcesce...
متن کاملChromatographic separation of the pigment fractions from a Serratia marcescens strain.
A procedure was developed for the separation of pigment fractions in a wild-type Serratia marcescens strain. Separation was achieved by column chromatography and elution with several organic solvents. At least six pigment fractions were obtained from the alumina columns by this technique, whereas only four fractions had been reported previously. Spectral and elemental analyses indicate that, in...
متن کاملIsolation, Identification, Optimization of Prodigiosin Pigment Produced by Serratia Marcescens and its Applications
Natural products either synthesized or secreted by organisms represent one of the critical sources of potential medicinal use. Both natural pigments and synthetic dyes have been widely used in different fields in on a daily basis life such as foods or feeds, textiles, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, paper printing inks, etc. Secondary metabolites of bacterial origin include various enzymes, pigment...
متن کاملEfficient recombinant production of prodigiosin in Pseudomonas putida
Serratia marcescens and several other bacteria produce the red-colored pigment prodigiosin which possesses bioactivities as an antimicrobial, anticancer, and immunosuppressive agent. Therefore, there is a great interest to produce this natural compound. Efforts aiming at its biotechnological production have so far largely focused on the original producer and opportunistic human pathogen S. marc...
