    • Response ofEscherichia colicontaining mycobacterial carotene genes to UV radiation

    Metadata Updated: September 30, 2025

    Carotenoid pigments are largely distributed in nature. They are present in all of the photosynthetic organisms as well as in some bacteria, fungi, and yeast [1]. Two major biological roles have been assigned to carotenoids in plants and prokaryotes. In photosynthetic organisms, these pigments are involved in trapping light energy. A more general role applicable to both photosynthetic and non-photosynthetic cell, is protection from photodynamic action [1]. Genes controlling the synthesis of these pigments have been studied in several organisms such asErwiniaspecies [2,3,4],Mycobacterium aurumA+[5,6],Arabidopsis[7,8],Xantophyllomyces dendrorhous[9] andBrevibacterium linens[10].
