MUTANT HAVING ABILITY TO OVERPRODUCE CAROTENOIDS AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING CAROTENOIDS BY USING SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to a mutant having an ability to overproduce carotenoids and a method for producing carotenoids by using the mutant. The mutant, of which mutations are induced by irradiation after being transformed with a recombinant vector according to the present invention, has an excellent ability to produce carotenoids and can be mass produced, and thus can be useful in various industrial fields, which use carotenoids, such as cosmetics, food, and feed.
