METHOD FOR PRODUCTION OF ASYMMETRIC CAROTENOIDS |
摘要 |
Genes have been isolated from Rhodococcus and Deinococcus which encode a specific lycopene &bgr;-cyclase capable of converting acyclic carotenoids with at least one &psgr;-end group to the corresponding asymmetric carotenoid containing a single &bgr;-ionone ring end group. The genes are new. Transformed host cells expressing the present genes and methods for the bio-conversion of acylic carotenoid substrates to corresponding asymmetric carotenoid are also provided. |
