Metabolic engineering and synthetic biology strategies for producing high-value natural pigments in Microalgae.

Microalgae are microorganisms capable of producing bioactive compounds using photosynthesis. Microalgae contain a variety of high value-added natural pigments such as carotenoids, phycobilins, and chlorophylls. These pigments play an important role in many areas such as food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics.

Embracing a low-carbon future by the production and marketing of C1 gas protein.

Food scarcity and environmental deterioration are two major problems that human populations currently face. Fortunately, the disruptive innovation of raw food materials has been stimulated by the rapid evolution of biomanufacturing. Therefore, it is expected that the new trends in technology will not only alter the natural resource-dependent food production systems and the traditional way of life but also reduce and assimilate the greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere.

Transcriptome Analysis of the Accumulation of Astaxanthin in Treated with White and Blue Lights as well as Salicylic Acid.

is the most commercially valuable microalga for the production of natural astaxanthin, showing enhanced production of astaxanthin with the treatments of high-intensity light and hormones. The molecular mechanisms regulating the biosynthesis of astaxanthin in . treated with white light, blue light, and blue light with salicylic acid (SA) were investigated based on the transcriptome analysis.

Sustainable production of astaxanthin in microorganisms: the past, present, and future.

Astaxanthin (3,3'-dihydroxy-4,4'-diketo-β-carotene) is a type of C40 carotenoid with remarkable antioxidant characteristics, showing significant application prospects in many fields. Traditionally, the astaxanthin is mainly obtained from chemical synthesis and natural acquisition, with both approaches having many limitations and not capable of meeting the growing market demand. In order to cope with these challenges, novel techniques, e.
