Carotenoids are used as regulators for membrane fluidity by Staphylococcus xylosus
Scientific Reports, 2020 Carotenoids are associated with several important biological functions as antenna pigments in photosynthesis or protectives against oxidative stress. Occasionally they were also discussed as part of the cold adaptation mechanism of bacteria.
