DNA-kjede anvendelig i ökning av karotenoid utbytte

摘要

A DNA chain having characteristic of increasing carotenoid production, and containing the nucleotide sequence which encodes the polypeptide having the substantially same amino acid sequence described in SEQUENCE ID No. 1 or 2, or a DNA chain which hybridizes with said DNA chain, and a method for production for carotenoid characterized by introducing said DNA chain into the carotenoid-producing microorganisms, culturing said transformed microorganism and increasing carotenoid content in the culture broth and cells.
