An enhanced electron transport chain improved astaxanthin production in Phaffia rhodozyma
Integrative metabolic analysis of improved astaxanthin production in Phaffia rhodozyma. Luna‐Flores and co‐workers grew their mutant and wild‐type P. rhodozyma strains in instrumented fermenters and obtained kinetics, metabolomics, and transcriptomics data for comparative analysis. By integration with genomic data, the authors found correlation between

Genes involved in carotene synthesis and mating in Blakeslea trispora [PDF]
Mating of Blakeslea trispora and other molds of the order Mucorales requires the interaction of mycelia of opposite sex, (+) and (-), leading to the development of specialized structures and to an enhanced accumulation of beta-carotene.

SUMMARY A level of redundancy and interplay among the transcriptional regulators of floral development safeguards a plant's reproductive success and ensures crop production. In the present study, an additional layer of complexity in the regulation of floral meristem (FM) identity and flower development is elucidated linking carotenoid biosynthesis and ...

Volatiles of the Apicomplexan Alga Chromera velia and Associated Bacteria
Passing the smell test: The apicomplexan alga Chromera velia harbours a range of bacteria that have been identified by metagenome analysis. Analysis of the volatile organic compounds in the C. velia and individual bacterial isolates showed an almost absent overlap between the released compounds, thus indicating a low contribution of the bacteria to the

"Glucose and ethanol-dependent transcriptional regulation of the astaxanthin biosynthesis pathway in Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous" [PDF]
Background The yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous is one of the most promising and economically attractive natural sources of astaxanthin. The biosynthesis of this valuable carotenoid is a complex process for which the regulatory mechanisms ...

Photosynthetic cyanobacteria are favourable hosts for terpenoid production because they can produce these compounds from light, carbon dioxide and water. An uncommon feature of cyanobacteria is that they possess only a single prenyltransferase for generating short‐chain terpenoid skeletons.

Proteomic analysis of the carotenogenic yeast
Background The yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous is used for the microbiological production of the antioxidant carotenoid astaxanthin. In this study, we established an optimal protocol for protein extraction and performed the first proteomic analysis ...
