The paper investigates mathematical models of the balance of carotenoid accumulation and biomass of the microalgae Desmodesmus armatus population under the multidirectional action of substrates, in ...

The theoretical maximum phytoene production flux in these strains is therefore 849 ± 71 µM/h. The bottleneck for carotenoid biosynthesis in plants is phytoene synthase, whose activity is regulated by ...

The International Carotenoid Society has presented one of its most prestigious awards to Professor Eleanore Wurtzel (GC/Lehman College, Biochemistry, Biology), a leader in the field of carotenoid ...

BIRMINGHAM, Mich., April 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- MacuHealth, the leader in innovative eye supplements, is introducing LifeMeter, a portable, non-invasive device proven to measure the presence of ...

Carotenoid biosynthesis is evolutionarily related to the biosynthesis of polycyclic triterpenes, such as hopanoids and sterols, as some of the initial enzymes involved are homologues (3, 4). Squalene ...

The carotenoid fucoxanthin enables diatoms to efficiently harvest the blue-green part ... The two newly engineered diatom mutants with impaired fucoxanthin biosynthesis are green-colored. view ...

The carotenoid fucoxanthin enables diatoms to efficiently harvest the blue-green part of the sunlight for photosynthesis. An international research team now discovered how the algae produce this ...

OR regulates carotenoid biosynthesis by posttranslationally regulating phytoene synthase (PSY, the first and main rate-determining enzyme of the pathway). Moreover, OR promotes stable storage by ...
