(Springer, 2015)The primary carotenoid synthesized by Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous is astaxanthin, which is used as a feed additive in aquaculture. Cell growth kinetics and carotenoid production were correlated with the mRNA levels of ...
-
(BIOMED Central Ltd., 2017)Background: The cytochromes P450 (P450s) are a large superfamily of heme-containing monooxygenases involved in the oxidative metabolism of an enormous diversity of substrates. These enzymes require electrons for their ...
-
(2012)Background: Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous is a basidiomycetous yeast that synthesizes astaxanthin, which is a carotenoid with a great biotechnological impact. The ergosterol and carotenoid synthesis pathways are derived ...
-
(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 ...
-
(2013)Background: Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous is a basidiomycetous yeast that is relevant to biotechnology, as it can synthesize the carotenoid astaxanthin. However, the astaxanthin levels produced by wild-type strains are ...
-
(Humana Press, 2018)Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) molecules are widely found in yeasts and filamentous fungi. It has been suggested that these molecules may play an important role in the evolution of eukaryote genomes and could be a valuable ...
-
(2012)Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous is a natural source of astaxanthin, a carotenoid widely used in the food industry. In this yeast, astaxanthin is synthesized from β-carotene by a cytochrome P450, CrtS, which depends on CrtR, ...
-
(Frontiers Media, 2020)Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhoussynthesizes astaxanthin, a carotenoid used in aquaculture. Astaxanthin is synthesized from metabolites of the mevalonate pathway, which are also precursors for sterols biosynthesis. The ...
-
(Biomed Central, 2016)Background: The yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous produces carotenoids of commercial interest, including astaxanthin and beta-carotene. Although carotenogenesis in this yeast and the expression profiles of the genes ...
-
(Society of Biology of Chile, 2004)The expression, at the mRNA level, of carotenoid biosynthetic genes from Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous was studied by RT-PCR. The experimental conditions for the RT-PCR assay were standardized to quantify the relative ...
