Caption
(A) PEST fusion to Gal80 for copper-induced GAL expression in YPD media. Copper sulfate (20 μM) was used to induce the carotenogenic genes under the control of copper-inducible GAL system. (B) Carotenoid contents of engineered yeasts in YNBD and YPD media at 72 h. (C) Growth curves of JS-BE5 and JS-BE5-PEST cultivated in YNBD and YPD media. Strain JS-BE5-PEST is derived from JS-BE5 with PEST-Gal80N. (D) Representative HPLC results showing the abundance of carotenoids produced by JS-BE5-PEST. P values were obtained from two-tailed unpaired Student’s t test. ***P < 0.01. Error bars indicate the SDs of three independent experiments.
