Abstract High level expression of the functional β-carotene ketolase gene bkt from Haematococcus pluvialis occurred in Escherichia coli transformants producing β-carotene or zeaxanthin as a result of the presence of additional carotenoid genes from Erwinia uredovora . Requirement of molecular oxygen for the insertion of the keto group was demonstrated. The final product of this two-step ketolase reaction from β-carotene is canthaxanthin (4,4'-diketo-β-carotene) with the 4-monoketo derivative echinenone as an intermediate. A reaction sequence for the formation of astaxanthin from β-carotene was established based on kinetic data on astaxanthin formation in E. coli transformants carrying the hydroxylase gene crtZ from Erwinia along with bkt . We conclude that the carotenoids zeaxanthin and adonixanthin which accumulate in addition to astaxanthin in this transformant are products of side reactions rather than direct precursors of astaxanthin. The possible mechanisms for the formation of the keto derivatives are discussed. 相似文献

A South African winter ephemeral D. pluvialis was exposed, under low and high nutrient conditions, to four different daily doses of biologically effective UV-B radiation. These simulated different depletions (range 0–30%) in the ozone layer at the southerly distribution limit (33° 56′S) of this species, and included daily UV-B doses received at the northerly distribution limit (26° 38′S) without ozone depletion. Growth inhibition by increased UV-B radiation was observed during early vegetative stages, but only under low nutrient conditions. Thereafter, net CO2 assimilation rate, growth and reproduction were stimulated by an increase in UV-B radiation, though doses above those approximating a 20% ozone depletion appeared to be inhibitory. Differential stimulation occurred in the two nutrient treatments. Under high nutrient conditions, photosynthesis (specifically carboxylation efficiency), and numbers of leaves, inflorescences and diaspores per plant, and leaf areas increased, but leaf thickness decreased with increased UV-B radiation. Under low nutrient conditions, dry masses of leaves, stems, inflorescences and diaspores, and total above-ground dry masses increased with increased UV-B radiation. Foliar organic carbon and nitrogen concentrations and foliar concentrations of UV-B absorbing compounds were unaffected by increased UV-B radiation, but foliar P concentrations declined. Diaspore viability declined with increased UV-B radiation. The net effect was a 35 to 43% reduction in viable diaspore production under high nutrient conditions at UV-B doses equivalent to those currently received at the northerly distribution limit during the reproductive phase. It is concluded that anticipated increases in UV-B radiation could reduce regeneration success, and seedling survival in areas of low soil fertility, particularly at lower latitudes, and consequently increase the risk of localized population extinctions from stochastic causes. 相似文献

The gap between the theoretical biological potential of microalgae and the biomass productivity obtained with algal culture in tubular biophotoreactors is due to a reduced growth rate related to hydrodynamic stress of pumping. High levels of mixing are necessary to reach a turbulent flow of the culture, in order to optimize the light regime. The optimal conditions of pumping to produce this significant liquid mixing may produce some cell damage. Factors affecting this hydrodynamic stress (geometry of the bioreactor involved, type of pump utilized, morphology of algal cells, physiological conditions of microalgae, etc.) are discussed. 相似文献

Natural astaxanthin (Ax) is an additive that is widely used because of its beneficial biochemical functions. However, the methods used to produce free Ax have drawbacks. Chemical saponification methods produce several by‐products, and lipase‐catalyzed hydrolysis methods are not cost effective. In this study, a bacterial strain of Stenotrophomonas sp. was selected to enzymatically catalyze the saponification of Ax esters to produce free all‐trans‐Ax. Through single‐factor experiments and a Box–Behnken design, the optimal fermentation conditions were determined as follows: a seed culture age of 37.79 h, an inoculum concentration of 5.92%, and an initial broth pH of 6.80. Under these conditions, a fermentation curve was drawn, and the optimal fermentation time was shown to be 60 h. At 60 h, the degradation rate of the Ax esters was 98.08%, and the yield of free all‐trans‐Ax was 50.130 μg/mL. © 2016 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

Astaxanthin Accumulation in the Green Alga Haematococcus pluvialis: Effects of Cultivation Parameters 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The green alga, Haematococcus pluvlalis Flotow is used as a source of the ketocarotenoid astaxanthin for application in fish aquaculture, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Ceils of the green alga were induced by the application of different light and starvation conditions to evaluate the effect in astaxanthin accumulate. The conditions used for the Induction were high light intensity (170 μmol·m^-2·s^-1), iron starvation, sulfur starvation and phosphate starvation. The results show that stresses applied in culture, which interfere with cell division, trigger the accumulation of astaxanthin. Notably, sulfur starvation results in a massive accumulation of this commercially important carotenoid. 相似文献

The green microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis synthesizes secondary carotenoids after exposure to environmental stress, a process that is used for the biotechnological production of astaxanthin (Ax). This study reports, for the first time, the medium-dependent changes in the carotenoid pattern throughout the cultivation process as well as the exact composition of carotenoids and their fatty acid mono- and diesters using LC-MS. Secondary carotenoid formation started immediately upon exposure to nutrient depletion and high light conditions. Ax and its corresponding mono- and diesters were detected simultaneously. After 15 days of cultivation, no significant changes were detected in carotenoid composition; however, the ratio between carotenoid mono- and diesters still varied. Main carotenoids were identified as Ax linolenate and Ax oleate, but also five adonirubin and one lutein monoester were detected. The influence of three different autotroph media was studied on carotenoid content, which reached a maximum 16.1 mg/g dry weight. The results indicate that media composition has an influence on the ratio of Ax mono- to diester but not on the qualitative composition of secondary carotenoids in H. pluvialis. Beside the pathway via echinenone, canthaxanthin and adonirubin the results indicate that Ax biosynthesis takes place via another route: from beta-carotene via beta-cryptoxanthin, zeaxanthin and adonixanthin. 相似文献
