Investigation of Citrinin and Pigment Biosynthesis Mechanisms in Monascus purpureus by Transcriptomic Analysis

Monascus purpureus YY-1 is widely used in food colorant production in China. Our previous study clearly illustrated the whole-genome data for YY-1 and provided useful insight into evolutionary research and industrial applications. However, the presence of citrinin, which has nephrotoxic, hepatotoxic...
