Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Crustacean shows various color which is due to the pigment protein called crustacyanin (CRCN) in the exoskeleton. CRCN represents its native color as the complex of the apoprotein and astaxanthin (Asx) but turn red by releasing Asx upon denaturation (This is the reason the cooked prawn/crab shows red color.). The aim of this study is to establish the recombinant protein expression system of CRCN of kuruma prawn to characterize its color variation.
