Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19916140A1] The invention relates to proteins with an enzymatic activity for converting beta -carotene into zeaxanthin or canthaxanthin into astaxanthin, to nucleic acids that code for these proteins, to nucleic acid constructs containing these nucleic acids, to genetically modified organisms in which the genetic modification causes or increases the gene expression of this nucleic acid compared with a wild type, and to methods for producing xanthophyll derivatives.
