G71D | mutant strain accumulates torulene and is not able to produce neurosporaxanthin | Fusarium fujikuroi |
additional information | expression of carT in lycopene-accumulating Escherichia coli cells results in the formation of minor amounts of apocarotenoids, but no enzymatic activity is observed in beta-carotene-accumulating cells | Fusarium fujikuroi |
