Feedback and molecular interactions in the process of light-induced carotenogenesis in Myxococcus xanthus [PDF]

open access: yes
Myxococcus xanthus is a soil-dwelling bacterium which produces carotenoids upon irradiation with blue light. Genetic analysis has allowed elucidation of transduction of the light signal to the carotenogenic machinery within the cell.

Limits to growth and carotenogenesis in laboratory and large-scale outdoor cultures of Dunaliella salina

open access: yes, 1988
Non-axenic laboratory cultures and mixed-species microcosms were used to assess the limiting factors to growth and carotenogenesis in the halophilic green alga Dunaliella salina. Growth is inhibited at low temperatures, especially night-time temperatures.

IdsA is the major geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate synthase involved in carotenogenesis in Corynebacterium glutamicum

open access: yes, 2014
Corynebacterium glutamicum, a yellow-pigmented soil bacterium that synthesizes the rare cyclic C50 carotenoid decaprenoxanthin and its glucosides, has been engineered for the production of various carotenoids.

Light-induced carotenogenesis in Myxococcus xanthus: Light-dependent membrane sequestration of ECF sigma factor CarQ by anti-sigma factor CarR

open access: yes
Light-induced carotenogenesis in Myxococcus xanthus is under the control of the carQRS operon. CarQ, a proposed extracytoplasmic (ECF) RNA polymerase sigma factor, is required for expression of the operon and the carC gene that encodes phytoene ...

Overexpression of the crgA gene abolishes light requirement for carotenoid biosynthesis in Mucor circinelloides

open access: yes
This work describes the isolation and characterization of crgA, a Mucor circinelloides gene, which has a dominant-positive effect on light-regulated carotenogenesis.

Characterization of metabolic pathways of isoprenoids and beta-carotene formation during carotenogenesis in Dunaliella salina BC02

open access: yes, 2006
La microalga verde Volvocal Dunaliella salina Teodoresco es la fuente natural más rica del carotenoide beta-caroteno. Existe una demanda de beta-caroteno como fuente de colorantes alimenticios, y también como suplemento dietarios para humanos y animales ...

Towards the mechanism of carotenogenesis in Myxococcus xanthus [PDF]

open access: yes
Myxococcus xanthus Is a Gram negative, heterotrophic, soil dwelling, bacterium. It exhibits a number of interesting characteristics. Including the synthesis of carotenoids. Carotenoids protect the cells from lethal photolysis by protoporphyrin IX In the presence of light (Burchard and Dworking, 1966, J.Bac., 97, 1165-1168).
