Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Carotenoids are one of the representative natural pigments, and prevent human body from oxidative stress. As promising functional carotenoids rare in nature, we noted 4-Ketocapsanthin, 2,2’-Dihydroxyastaxanthin, and Nostoxanthin. Plasmids for the biosynthesis of these pigments in the chloroplasts were constructed, and used to obtain respective chloroplast-genome modified (CGM) lettuce plants. Pigment analysis was carried out on these CGM lettuce plants. CGM lettuce that synthesized ketocarotenoids such as Astaxanthin and Fritschiellxanthin (4-Ketolutein; promising functional carotenoids rare in nature), which had already constructed in the beginning of the project, were cultivated with large scale, and supplied for experiments on plant physiology and confirmation study as food safety.
