    Notes: Abstract The formation of soluble Monascus red pigments is strongly positively and negatively regulated by different amino acids. Leucine, valine, lysine, and methionine had strong negative effects on pigment formation. Leucine supported poor pigment formation when used as sole nitrogen source in fermentations, yet it neither repressed pigment synthase(s) nor inhibited its action. The new pigments derived from the hydrophobic leucine were more hydrophilic than the conventional red pigments (lacking an amino acid side-chain) and were extracellularly produced. Therefore, the low level of red pigments produced when leucine was the nitrogen source was not due to feed-back regulation by cell-bound leucine pigments. The negative effect of leucine was caused by enhanced decay of pigment synthase(s). The enhanced decay was not due simply to de novo synthesis of a leucine-induced protease.

    Notes: Summary Phosphate, ammonium and magnesium salts interfered with rapamycin production byStreptomyces hygroscopicus at concentrations optimal for growth. These observations point to the existence of phosphorus, magnesium and nitrogen-negative regulation mechanisms for rapamycin biosynthesis. On the other hand, Fe2+ stimulated rapamycin production at concentrations greater than that required for growth.

    Notes: Summary Chemically-defined media were developed for rapamycin production byStreptomyces hygroscopicus. Thirty-five carbon sources were tested for their effect on production. Eight failed to support growth and seven appeared to repress or inhibit rapamycin formation. The best combination of two carbon sources were 2% fructose and 0.5% mannose. Acetate and propionate, which are known to contribute most of the carbon atoms of the lactone ring, were unsatisfactory for growth and/or rapamycin production.
