Metabolic Regulation of Two <i>pksCT</i> Gene Transcripts in <i>Monascus ruber</i> Impacts Citrinin Biosynthesis

Citrinin (CIT), a secondary metabolite produced by the filamentous fungi <i>Monascus</i> species, exhibits nephrotoxic, hepatotoxic, and carcinogenic effects in mammals, remarkably restricting the utilization of <i>Monascus</i>-derived products. CIT synthesis is mediated thro...
