摘 要:The human intestinal microbiota that comprise over 1,000 species thrive in dark and anaerobic *** are recognized for the production of diverse low-molecular-weight metabolites crucial to human health and ***,low-molecular-weight pigments known for their antioxidative activity,are delivered to humans through oral ***,it remains unclear whether human intestinal bacteria biosynthesize carotenoids as part of the in-situ *** this study,we investigated carotenoid synthesis genes in vari-ous human gut and probiotic *** a result,novel candidates,the crtM and crtN genes,were identified in the carbon monoxide-utilizing gut anaerobe Eubacterium limosum and the lactic acid bacterium Leuconostoc mesenteroides *** gene candidates were isolated,introduced into Escherichia coli,which synthesized a carotenoid substrate,and cultured *** analysis of the resulting carotenoids re-vealed that the crtM and crtN gene candidates of *** and *** mediate the production of 4,4′-diaponeurosporene through 15-cis-4,4′-*** of the crtE-homologous genes in these bacteria indicated their non-functionality for C40-carotenoid *** and ***,along with the known carotenogenic lactic acid bacterium Lactiplantibacillus plantarum,were observed to produce no carotenoids under strictly anaerobic *** two lactic acid bacteria synthesized detectable levels of 4,4′-diaponeurosporene under semi-aerobic *** findings highlight that the obligate anaerobe ***-sum retains aerobically functional C30-carotenoid biosynthesis genes,potentially with no immediate self-utility,suggesting an evolutionary direction in carotenoid biosynthesis.(229 words)
