Abstract
A recombinant microbial host cell is provided capable of producing astaxanthin from β-carotene without a measurable concomitant accumulation of ketolated or hydroxylated intermediates such as adonixanthin, zeaxanthin, adonirubin, echinenone, 3-hydroxyechinenone, 3′-hydroxyechinenone, canthaxanthin, and β-cryptoxanthin. Specifically, a β-carotene producing microbial host cell was engineered to express two heterologous genes, a β-carotene ketolase from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii in combination with a carotenoid hydroxylase from Brevundimonas vesicularis or Arabidopsis thaliana.
