Due to the nature of canthaxanthin, relative to astaxanthin (a carotenoid of significant commercial value) these beta-carotene ketolase proteins have been studied extensively. [ 16 ] [ 17 ] An E. coli based production system has been developed, that achieved canthanaxanthin production at 170 mg/L in lab scale fermentation.
