    • Cloning of the cytochrome p450 reductase (crtR) gene and its involvement in the astaxanthin biosynthesis ... 
      Alcaíno Gorman, Jennifer; Barahona‑Crisóstomo, Salvador; Carmona, Marisela; Lozano, Carla; Marcoleta, Andrés; Niklitschek, Mauricio; Sepúlveda, Dionisia; Baeza Cancino, Marcelo; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor (BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2008-10-06)
      Background: The yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous synthesizes astaxanthin, a carotenoid with high commercial interest. The proposed biosynthetic route in this organism is isopentenylpyrophosphate (IPP) -> geranyleranyl ...
    • Codon usage and codon context bias in Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous 
      Baeza Cancino, Marcelo; Alcaíno Gorman, Jennifer; Barahona‑Crisóstomo, Salvador; Sepúlveda, Dionisia; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor (BioMed Central, 2015)
      Background Synonymous codons are used differentially in organisms from the three domains of life, a phenomenon referred to as codon usage bias. In addition, codon pair bias, particularly in the 3’ codon context, has also ...
    • Expression of the carotenoid biosynthesis genes in Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous 
      Lodato, Patricia; Alcaíno Gorman, Jennifer; Barahona‑Crisóstomo, Salvador; Niklitschek, Mauricio; Carmona, M.; Wozniak, A.; Baeza Paredes, Mauricio; Jiménez, A.; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor (2007)
      In the yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous the genes idi, crtE, crtYB, crtI and ast are involved in the biosynthesis of astaxanthin from isopentenyl pyrophosphate. The carotenoid production and the kinetics of mRNA expression ...
    • Genomic organization of the structural genes controlling the astaxanthin biosynthesis pathway of Xanthophyllomyces ... 
      Niklitschek, Mauricio; Alcaíno Gorman, Jennifer; Barahona‑Crisóstomo, Salvador; Sepúlveda, Dionisia; Lozano, Carla; Carmona, Marisela; Marcoleta, Andrés; Martínez, Claudio; Lodato, Patricia; Baeza Cancino, Marcelo; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor (Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2008-05-05)
      The cloning and nucleotide sequence of the genes (idi, crtE, crtYB, crtI and crtS) controlling the astaxanthin biosynthesis pathway of the wild-type ATCC 24230 strain of Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous in their genomic and ...
    • Identification and functional characterization of the CYP51 gene from the yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous ... 
      Leiva, Kritsye; Werner, Nicole; Sepúlveda, Dionisia; Barahona‑Crisóstomo, Salvador; Baeza Cancino, Marcelo; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor; Alcaíno Gorman, Jennifer (BioMed Central, 2015)
      Background: Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous is a basidiomycetous yeast that synthesizes astaxanthin, a carotenoid with great biotechnological impact. The ergosterol and carotenoid synthetic pathways derive from the ...
    • The Inter-generic Fungicidal Activity of Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous 
      Baeza Cancino, Marcelo; Flores, Oriana; Carrasco, Mario; Rozas, Juan Manuel; Oviedo, Vicente; Barahona‑Crisóstomo, Salvador; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor (MICROBIOLOGICAL SOCIETY KOREA, KOREA SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY CENTER, 2010-08-22)
      In this study, the existence of intra-specific and inter-generic fungicidal activity in Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous and Phaffia rhodozyma strains isolated from different regions of the earth was examined. Assays were ...
