“…Matthews et al (2006) found α-actinin to be the only myofibrillar protein that efficiently binds astaxanthin, reporting a molar binding ratio of astaxanthin to α-actinin of 1.11:1.00. A schematic representation of a sarcomeric Z-disc in muscle tissue is shown in Figure 6C, according to previously published data (Sjöblom et al, 2008).…”

“…Naturally, α-actinin is also present in white-fleshed teleost fish, but only representatives of the Salmonidae accumulate significant amounts of astaxanthin and canthaxanthin in their muscles. According to Matthews et al (2006), the limiting factor for carotenoid deposition is not α-actinin, but rather their efficient absorption, transport, and specifically their release to the target tissue of the Salmonidae. In agreement, extremely high concentrations in plasma and flesh can be reached by injecting high carotenoid doses into the intraperitoneal tissue of the fish (Ytrestøyl andBjerkeng, 2007, Maltby et al, 2003).…”

Over the past decades, an enormous body of literature dealing with the natural deposition of carotenoids in plant- and animal-based foods has accumulated. Prominent examples are the large solid-crystalline aggregates in carrots and tomatoes or the lipid-dissolved forms in dairy products and egg yolk. Latest research has identified lipid-dissolved forms in a rare number of plant foods, such as tangerine tomatoes and peach palm fruit (Bactris gasipaes Kunth). In addition, liquid-crystalline forms were assumed in so-called tubular chromoplasts of numerous fruits, e.g., in papaya, mango, and bell pepper. The bioavailability of carotenoids from fresh and processed foods strongly depends on their genuine deposition form, since their effective absorption to the human organism requires their liberation from the food matrix and subsequent solubilization into mixed micelles in the small intestine. Consequently, a broad overview about the natural array of carotenoid deposition forms should be helpful to better understand and modulate their bioavailability from foods. Furthermore, naturally highly bioavailable forms may provide biomimetic models for the improved formulation of carotenoids in food supplements. Therefore, this review paper presents scientific evidence from human intervention studies associating carotenoid deposition forms with their bioavailability, thus suggesting novel technological and dietary strategies for their enhanced absorption.

“…In vitro, tubulin does exhibit carotenoid-binding properties [71], but with relatively low specificity and affinity [21], and it is likely that it is functioning as a high capacity site for the passive deposition of specifically accumulated carotenoids in much the same way salmon muscle actinin is a site for deposition of high concentrations of astaxanthin [74]. In a follow up study, Crabtree et al used molecular modeling techniques and presented evidence that carotenoids may be bound to the paclitaxel (Taxol) binding site of the beta-tubulin subunit of microtubules [75].…”

In invertebrates and vertebrates, carotenoids are ubiquitous colorants, antioxidants, and provitamin A compounds that must be absorbed from dietary sources and transported to target tissues where they are taken up and stabilized to perform their physiological functions. These processes occur in a specific and regulated manner mediated by high-affinity carotenoid-binding proteins. In this minireview, we examine the published literature on carotenoid-binding proteins in vertebrate and invertebrate systems, and we report our initial purification and characterization of a novel luteinbinding protein isolated from liver of Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica).

“…astaxanthin) and salmon muscle proteins is important to achieve better retention of carotenoid in salmon flesh. Knowledge regarding the mechanisms associated to astaxanthin binding to fish muscle is extremely scarce (Matthews et al 2006). Proteome analysis of membrane bound astaxanthin transport proteins in adult Atlantic salmon revealed some up-regulated proteins in response to dietary astaxanthin (Saha 2005).…”

Despite the enormous input into the worldwide development of fish and shellfish farming in the recent decades, in part as an attempt to minimize the impact of fishing on already overexploited natural populations, the application of genomics to aquaculture and fisheries remains poorly developed. Improving state-of-the-art genomics research in various aquaculture systems, as well as its industrial applications, remains one of the major challenges in this area and should be the focus of well developed strategies to be implemented in the next generation of projects. This chapter will first provide an overview of the genomic tools and resources available, then discuss the application of genomic approaches to the improvement of fish and shellfish farming (e.g. breeding, reproduction, growth, nutrition and product quality), including the evaluation of stock diversity and the use of selection procedures. The chapter will also discuss the use of genomic approaches to study and monitor natural fish and shellfish populations and to understand interactions within their ecosystems.
