Abstract
Considering the global trend in the search for alternative natural compounds with antioxidant and sun protection factor (SPF) boosting properties, bacterial carotenoids represent an opportunity for exploring pigments of natural origin which possess high antioxidant activity, lower toxicity, no residues, and no environmental risk and are readily decomposable. In this work, three pigmented bacteria from the Antarctic continent, named Arthrobacter agilis 50cyt, Zobellia laminarie 465, and Arthrobacter psychrochitiniphilus 366, were able to withstand UV-B and UV-C radiation. The pigments were extracted and tested for UV absorption, antioxidant capacity, photostability, and phototoxicity profile in murine fibroblasts (3T3 NRU PT-OECD TG 432) to evaluate their further potential use as UV filters. Furthermore, the pigments were identified by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-photodiode array detector-mass spectrometry (UPLC-PDA-MS/MS). The results showed that all pigments presented a very high antioxidant activity and good stability under exposure to UV light. However, except for a fraction of the A. agilis 50cyt pigment, they were shown to be phototoxic. A total of 18 different carotenoids were identified from 23 that were separated on a C18 column. The C50 carotenes bacterioruberin and decaprenoxanthin (including its variations) were confirmed for A. agilis 50cyt and A. psychrochitiniphilus 366, respectively. All-trans-bacterioruberin was identified as the pigment that did not express phototoxic activity in the 3T3 NRU PT assay (MPE < 0.1). Zeaxanthin, β-cryptoxanthin, β-carotene, and phytoene were detected in Z. laminarie 465. In conclusion, carotenoids identified in this work from Antarctic bacteria open perspectives for their further biotechnological application towards a more sustainable and environmentally friendly way of pigment exploitation.

Abstract
The importance of replacing synthetic pigments with natural types is increasing day by day in the food industry due to the harmful effects of some synthetic pigments. Microorganisms are a major source of natural pigments, which nowadays have attracted the attention of researchers. In this study, carotenoid pigments were produced by Micrococcus roseus and Rhodotorula glutinis, and some of their biological properties such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory activities were evaluated. Given the results, bacteria, especially gram-positive bacteria, had higher sensitivity to the pigments extracted from M. roseus (PEM) and R. glutinis (PER) compared to molds so that Bacillus cereus and Alternaria citri had the highest and the lowest sensitivity, respectively. PER showed a higher antioxidant activity compared with PEM in the various methods of measuring antioxidant activity. In vitro and in vivo anti-tumor-promoting activities of PER were measured significantly more than PEM (P <0.05). Both pigment extracts remarkably inhibited the 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced inflammation, so that ID50 (50% inhibitory dose) of PEM and PER were 0.22 and 0.09 mg/ear, respectively.

Abstract
Microbial cells accumulate pigments under certain culture conditions, which have very important industrial applications. Microorganisms can serve as sources of carotenoids, the most widespread group of naturally occurring pigments. More than 750 structurally different yellow, orange, and red colored molecules are found in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes with an estimated market of $ 919 million by 2015. Carotenoids protect cells against photooxidative damage and hence found important applications in environment, food and nutrition, disease control, and as potent antimicrobial agents. In addition to many research advances, this paper reviews concerns with recent evaluations, applications of microbial pigments, and recommendations for future researches with an understanding of evolution and biosynthetic pathways along with other relevant aspects.

Abstract
Antarctic bacteria are adapted to the extremely low temperature. The transcriptional and translational machineries of these bacteria are adapted to the sub-zero degrees of temperature. Studies directed towards identifying the changes in the protein profiles during changes in the growth temperatures of an Antarctic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae Lz4W may help in understanding the molecular basis of cold adaptation. In this study, subcellular fractionation methods of proteins were used for the enrichment and identification of proteins including low abundance proteins. The membrane proteins of the bacterium P. syringae Lz4W were prepared employing sucrose density gradient method. The proteins were separated through 2D gel-electrophoresis with the pH ranges 3-10, 4-7 and 5-8 using the detergent, amidosulfobetaine (ASB-14). The proteins separated on the 1D SDS PAGE and 2D gels were identified with the help of LC-ESI MS/MS and MALDI TOF TOF using bioinformatic programs MASCOT and SEQUEST. Since the genome sequence of P. syringae Lz4W is not available, the proteins are identified by using the genome database of the Pseudomonas sp. available at NCBI. The present studies focus on identifying temperature dependent expression of proteins by employing LC-MS/MS method and the functional significance of these proteins is discussed.

Abstract
The proteins of an Antarctic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae Lz4W, identified earlier by different membrane protein preparation methods, were combined together and the redundant identities removed. In total, 1479 proteins including 148 outer membrane proteins from this bacterium were predicted by the algorithm PSORTb3.0. A detailed analysis on their subcellular localization was undertaken which was determined using TMHMM, TMB-hunt and BOMP. A comparison of PSORTb predicted outer membrane proteins with BOMP, revealed that most of the proteins predicted by the former, contained β–barrels in the outer membranes. A comparative analysis of PSORTb, TMHMM and TMB-hunt reveals that most of the outer membranes proteins of this bacterium could be identified using this approach. Thus, by using a combination of biochemical and different bioinformatics algorithms, the membrane proteins of P. syringae are analyzed. In particular, PSORTb results are compared and supported by other algorithms, to improve the strength of OM proteins prediction. Several proteins, having an important role in cold adaptation of the organism, could also be identified.
