Optimized bacterial host strains of methylomonas sp. 16a |
摘要 |
Methanotrophic bacterial strains are provided that have been optimized for the production of carotenoid compounds through the down-regulation of one or more of the crtN1, aid, crtN2 and crtN3 genes of the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway. The resulting strains lack pigmented C<SUB>30 </SUB>carotenoid compounds, and show an increase in the production of C<SUB>40 </SUB>carotenoids. The use of the optimized host strains for the production of the C<SUB>40 </SUB>carotenoids canthaxanthin and astaxanthin is also described.
