烟草类胡萝卜素代谢的遗传及基因工程研究进展

摘要

综述了烟草类胡萝卜素合成和降解途径所涉及的关键基因的分离、功能分析、分子调控及类胡萝卜素代谢的调节和基因工程研究进展,同时对烟草类胡萝卜素代谢的研究方向和应用前景进行了讨论和展望.%Advances in research of biosynthetic and degradation pathway of carotenoid,and hence its related carotenogenic gene as well as carotenoid dioxygenase gene were reviewed. Metabolic manipulation of carotenoid was summarized. Strategies, problems and achievements of genetic manipulation of carotenoid metabolism were discussed.
