BACKGROUNDProbiotic lactic acid bacteriumLactiplantibacillus plantarumis widely used in the dairy and other fermented food industries.L. plantarumAR113 harbors a C30carotenoid operoncrtNMbased on genomic analysis, but the yield of C30carotenoid is only 8.1 μg g‐1DCW.RESULTSTo improve the productivity of C30carotenoid,crtNMfromL. plantarumAR113 was cloned and reconstructed inEscherichia coliBL21(DE3). The proteins crtN and crtM were successfully expressed based on a sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS‐PAGE) analysis, and the carotenoid was detected using high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS). In comparison with the constitutive promoter P44, the use of the inducible T7 promoter significantly increased the carotenoid content inE. coli. The fermentation conditions were also optimized with induction by 0.5 mmol/L IPTG at 20 °C for 7 h. The yield of C30carotenoid reached 154.5 μg g‐1DCW, which was 18‐fold higher than that ofL. plantarumAR113. The 2,2‐diphenyl‐1‐picryl (DPPH) and 2,2′‐azino‐bis (3‐ethylbenzothiazoline‐6sulfonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging capacity of C30carotenoids synthesized by heterologous expression inE. coliwas also higher than that of the antioxidant food additive butylated hydroxytoluene.CONCLUSIONSOur findings suggest thatE. colihas strong potential as a basic chassis for the production of C30carotenoids fromLactiplantibacilluswith high antioxidant activity. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.
