Fig. 4From: Modification of targets related to the Entner–Doudoroff/pentose phosphate pathway route for methyl-d-erythritol 4-phosphate-dependent carotenoid biosynthesis in Escherichia coli Enhanced precursor use by manipulating Dxs and Eda. a Dxs was expressed at different strengths, and neurosporene production was compared between Δpgi strain and wild-type strain after bioconversion for 12 h; b neurosporene production in strain simultaneously expressing Dxs and Eda after bioconversion for 12 h; c neurosporene production in strain in which Dxs and Eda were spatially coupled by protein scaffold after bioconversion for 12 h.Back to article page
