Photoinduced Carotenogenesis in Chlorotic Euglena gracilis [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1970 Light induces beta-carotene synthesis in streptomycin-bleached Euglena gracilis Z. Light-adapted, chemostat-grown cells have up to 10-fold as much beta-carotene and 25% more protein than similarly grown, dark-adapted cells. Carotenogenesis does not occur under anaerobic conditions or in the presence of diphenylamine, cyanide, or cycloheximide. The blue

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

Partial physical and functional map of aMycobacterium aurum carotenogenesis operon
, 1993 International audienceThe genes controlling the biosynthesis of the carotenes inMycobacterium aurum were clustered in a 10.83-kb segment. Fragments generated by endonuclease digestions of the segment were cloned into a pHLD69 shuttle vector. The plasmids

Cultivating Moina macrocopa Straus in different media using carotenogenic yeast Rhodotorula
Archives of Polish Fisheries, 2015 The possibility of using carotenogenic yeast from the genus Rhodotorula as food substrate was studied during the cultivation of Moina macrocopa. The results showed that replacing traditional food substrates during the cultivation of the live fish food M.
