Improvement in MonAzPs production by exogenous cAMP addition. Total MonAzPs (a), red MonAzPs (b), orange MonAzPs (b), and yellow MonAzPs (d) yields of M. purpureus HJ11 strain at different concentrations of exogenous cAMP in GM medium. e DCW of M. purpureus HJ11 strain in the presence of exogenous cAMP. Statistical analysis using Student’s t-test revealed that there was a significant difference (P < 0.05) between groups (0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 mM). f Relative transcription levels of protein kinase A (PKA), adenylate cyclase (AC), mrPDE, LaeA and polyketide synthase (PKS) genes on different exogenous cAMP concentrations. Three replicates were performed for this analysis. Student’s t-test revealed a significant difference in relative expression levels of mrPDE and PKS genes between groups. Groups were not significantly different on PKA, AC and LaeA genes. Error bars represent standard deviations of three flasks
