IUPAC Name: (6S,7aR)-2-((2E,4E,6E,8E,10E,12E,14E,16E)-17-((R)-4-hydroxy-2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-en-1-yl)-6,11,15-trimethylheptadeca-2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16-octaen-2-yl)-4,4,7a-trimethyl-2,4,5,6,7,7a-hexahydrobenzofuran-6-ol
InChIKey: IFYMEZNJCAQUME-HHBFRJADSA-N
SMILES: C[C@@]12C(=CC(\C(=C\C=C\C(=C\C=C\C=C(\C=C\C=C(\C=C\C=3C(C)(C)C[C@H](O)CC3C)/C)/C)\C)\C)O1)C(C)(C)C[C@H](O)C2
Biological Activity: Mutatoxanthin is a xanthophyll carotenoid. Mutatoxanthin forms a photoprotective barrier for chloroplasts in the thalli of Xanthoria lichens by shielding chloroplasts from excessive light irradiation, while also contributing to the golden to brownish-orange coloration of the thalli. Mutatoxanthin can serve as a taxonomic characteristic for lichen species[1].
