Introduction
This sequence codes for an enzymatic fusion between CrtY that transforms Lycopene into β-carotene, and phCCD1 that transforms β-carotene into β-ionone. Those two sequences are codon optimized for an expression into S.cerevisiae.
The CrtY sequence comes from Pantoea ananatis and phCCD1 comes from Petunia hybrida genome. We took advantage of the publication of Chen et al. (2019) to design our enzymatic fusion, and the sequences are described into the publication of López et al. (2020).
Characterization
Production of β-carotene
The carotenoids contained in the cells were extracted using the method described by López et al. (2020). Yeast cells were lysed in acetone using glass beads and the supernatant obtained after this lysis was analyzed by RP-HPLC using a C18 column. In the LycoYeast-pFRAMBOISE strains, Figure 4 shows that lycopene is converted into a new product with a higher retention time upon induction. Considering the yellow color of pFRAMBOISE strains, as well as the in-line following α-ionone production results, this new peak most likely corresponds to ε-carotene, the expected precursor.
The CrtY side of our enzymatic fusion work those lab conditions
