Abstract
- A wild-type Rhodosporidium toruloides strain Z11 which could utilize molasses to co-produce high amount of lipid and carotenoids was isolated and characterized. The genome of strain Z11 with a G + C content of 59.0% was estimated to be 22.6 Mb and contained 5290 encoded protein sequences. Among these annotated genes, the ATP citrate (pro-S)-lyase, two malic enzymes (MaeA and MaeB) and the geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate synthase play key roles for the production of lipids and carotenoids. In addition, a β-fructofuranosidase (SacA) was identified, which may contribute to the utilization of molasses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
