crtW (beta-carotene ketolase) with rbs

CrtW (beta-carotene ketolase) from Brevundimonas sp. strain SD212 (MBIC 03018)Accession: AB377271.

Part of the carotenoid biosynthesis pathway. CrtW converts beta-carotene to canthaxanthin and zeaxanthin to astaxanthin.

Fig. 2-1-11-2 astaxanthin pellet and plate

These parts contain crtW (β-carotene ketolase) under inducible promoter control. This enzyme is responsible for the conversion of zeaxanthin into astaxanthin. Our team designed two BioBricks related to this conversion. Characterization of BBa_K395706 has been performed in E. coli strain MG1655.
