While synthetic dyes currently dominate the food colorant market, consumer concern regarding their safety and sustainability is driving a demand for their replacement with naturally derived alternatives. However, natural colorants are costly compared to their synthetic counterparts as the pigment content in the native sources is usually very low and extraction can be challenging. Recent advances in the engineering of microbial metabolism have sparked interest in the development of cell factories capable of producing natural colorants from renewable resources. This review summarizes major developments within metabolic engineering for the production of nature-identical food colorants by fermentation. Additionally, it highlights common applications, formulations, and physicochemical characteristics of prevalent pigment classes. Lastly, it outlines a workflow for accelerating the optimization of cell factories for the production or derivatization of nature-identical food colorants.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":291,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Chemical Biology","volume":"81 ","pages":"Article 102477"},"PeriodicalIF":7.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S136759312400053X/pdfft?md5=550500d4cecdf2232739957a8c7489f4&pid=1-s2.0-S136759312400053X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141324568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aberrant O-GlcNAcylation has been implicated in various diseases. However, the large repertoire of more than 1000 O-GlcNAcylated proteins and the elusive mechanisms of OGT/OGA in substrate recognition present significant challenges in targeting the dysregulated O-GlcNAcylation for therapeutic development. Recently, emerging evidence suggested that the non-catalytic domains play critical roles in regulating the functional specificity of OGT/OGA via modulating their protein interactions and substrate recognition.
