Assessment of Expression Cassettes and Culture Media for Different Escherichia coli Strains to Produce Astaxanthin

Abstract Astaxanthin is a value-added ketocarotenoid with great potential in nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries. Genetic engineering of heterologous hosts for astaxanthin production has attracted great attention. In this study, we assessed some key factors, including codon usage of the expr...
