Description | Mutatochrome, also known as flavacin?, Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as xanthophylls. These are carotenoids containing an oxygenated carotene backbone. Carotenes are characterized by the presence of two end-groups (mostly cyclohexene rings, but also cyclopentene rings or acyclic groups) linked by a long branched alkyl chain. Carotenes belonging form a subgroup of the carotenoids family. Xanthophylls arise by oxygenation of the carotene backbone. Thus, mutatochrome is considered to be an isoprenoid lipid molecule. Mutatochrome (5,8-epoxy-β-carotene) is a carotenoid. Mutatochrome is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Outside of the human body, Mutatochrome has been detected, but not quantified in, bitter gourds. Mutachrome is found in Adiantum capillus-veneris, Cetraria nigricans, Citrus cavaleriei, Cladonia glauca, Metasequoia glyptostroboides, Oscillatoria limosa, Parastichopus regalis and Sorbus aucuparia. This could make mutatochrome a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. |
