From: Biosynthesis of β-carotene in engineered E. coli using the MEP and MVA pathways
The effect of enzymes from the MEP pathway and GPP synthase on β-carotene production. A: The effect of enzymes from MEP pathway on β-carotene production. YJM40 containing the DXS enzyme from B. subtilis, YJM41 containing DXS and FNI enzymes from Bacillus subtilis; B: The effect of GPP synthase on β-carotene production. YJM42 harboring IspA from E. coli, YJM43 bearing GPPS2 from A. grandis. All the experiments were carried out in triplicates.
