Enhanced β-carotene production by overexpressing the DID2 gene, a subunit of ESCRT complex, in engineered Yarrowia lipolytica

CONCLUSION: The ESCRT protein complex subunit, DID2, improved β-carotene production in engineered Y. lipolytica and beneficial to glucose utilization and cofactors consumption. This study provided new finding of the DID2 gene's function and it mostly could be used for many other natural product productions.PMID:34160748 | DOI:10.1007/s10529-021-03150-w
