Plasmids from Article

ID Plasmid Purpose
53280pAC-GGPPipiContains crtE and idi genes of Erwinia herbicola (Pantoea agglomerans) Eho10, and thereby produces geranylgeranyl diphosphate in E. coli
53281pAC-94NContains crtI, crtY, and crtI genes of Erwinia herbicola (Pantoea agglomerans) Eho10, and produces beta-carotene in E. coli when complemented with a gene encoding geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase
53282pAC-85bContains crtE, crtI, crtY genes of Erwinia herbicola (Pantoea agglomerans) Eho10, and will produce beta-carotene in E. coli when complemented with a gene encoding phytoene synthase
53283pAC-PHYTipiContains crtE, crtB, and idi genes of Erwinia herbicola (Pantoea agglomerans) Eho10, and thereby produces phytoene in E. coli
53284pAC-ZETAipiContains crtE, crtB, and idi genes of Erwinia herbicola (Pantoea agglomerans) Eho10, and pds (crtP) gene of Synechococcus PCC7942, and thereby produces zeta-carotene in E. coli
53285pY2FContains an Arabidopsis thaliana lcyE cDNA and produces an active lycopene epsilon-cyclase enzyme in E. coli. Use with pAC-BETA-At or pAC-BETAipi-At to produce alpha-carotene in E. coli.
53286pAC-aZEAContains crtE, and crtB genes of Erwinia herbicola (Pantoea agglomerans) Eho10, crtI gene of Rhodobacter capsulatus, and lcyE cDNA of Arabidopsis thaliana and produces alpha-zeacarotene in E. coli
53287pAC-ZEAXipiContains crtE, idi, crtI, crtY, crtB, and crtZ genes of Erwinia herbicola (Pantoea agglomerans) Eho10 and thereby produces zeaxanthin in E. coli
53301pAC-CANTHipiContains crtE, idi, crtI, crtY, and crtB genes of Erwinia herbicola (Pantoea agglomerans) Eho10, and a crtO cDNA of Haematococcus pluvialis fused to a Trc promoter. Produces canthaxanthin in E. coli.
