oceanica that the level of Chlorophyll a depends on carotenoids particularly violaxanthin, as Chlorophyll a was well-correlated with carotenoids including violaxanthin when carotenoids changed responding to NoZEP manipulation (Additional file 1: Fig. S10). The level of polar membrane lipids is also ...
Polle, D. DellaPenna, Xanthophyll biosynthetic mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana: altered nonphotochemical quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence is due to changes in Photosystem II antenna size and stability, Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1553 (2002) 309-319....
Chlorophyll bis a form of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll b helps in photosynthesis by absorbing light energy. It is more soluble than chlorophyll a in polar solvents because of its carbonyl group. Its color is green, and it primarily absorbs blue light. ...
(Fig. 30-10). More recently, a synthesis of paleolimnological data from across the north temperate to subarctic zones demonstrated that eutrophication of a large population of lakes is leading to the expansion of bloom-forming Cyanobacteria (measured as myxoxanthophyll;Taranu et al., 2015), an...
Astaxanthin is a red-pink-colored xanthophyll carotenoid possessing two extra oxygenated gatherings on each ring, granting it improved antioxidant properties [152]. Astaxanthin has the capability to connect across the whole-cell membrane from within to the outside, which gives it a stronger biological...
xanthophyll (e.g.,Acetabularia). This last pigment was relatively higher in sea slugs from shallower waters. As higher light levels occur in shallower environments, this pigment may be involved in photoprotection [69]. Light availability can drastically change in the coral reef whereE. crispata...
chlorophyll and are responsible for the red, yellow, and brown colors of autumn foliage as chlorophyll is degraded. Compared to other xanthophyll carotenoids, which have 11 double bonds, ASX is the most reactive molecule in this family, with 13 double bonds. Other than some arthropods, most ...
mainly due to their strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties. Moreover, carotenoids have been used in folk medicine to treat various diseases and alleviate the accompanying symptoms. In this narrative review, the authors decided to determine whether there is any scientific ...
