Abstract
Monascus pigments are important colorings in food applications. Rice containing potassium phosphate and sodium nitrate was reported as a good pigment-producing medium for Monascus in previous studies. We found that the lack of potassium phosphate in this medium depressed red pigment production in cultivated Monascus pilosus. However, the influence of phosphate limitation on the biochemical metabolisms concerning culture growth and pigment production in Monascus remains unknown. Here, we used proteomic analysis by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/TOF MS), tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), and database interrogation to separate and identify the proteins of M. pilosus grown between the lack of potassium phosphate and the control media. Phosphate limitation to this complex medium induced an up-regulation of aldehyde dehydrogenase and several glycolytic enzymes in Monascus relative to the control. In contrast, the metabolic enzymes such as glucosamine:fructose-6-phosphate aminotransferase and ADP-ribosylation factor 1 were up-regulated in the control.
