Production of the Marine Carotenoid Astaxanthin by Metabolically Engineered Corynebacterium glutamicum
Astaxanthin, a red C40 carotenoid, is one of the most abundant marine carotenoids. It is currently used as a food and feed additive in a hundred-ton scale and is furthermore an attractive component for pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications with antioxidant activities. Corynebacterium glutamicum,...
