Abstract
The recent interest in plant pigment betalains asbioactive compounds and chemopreventive agents has led to the search for a reliable and scalable process to obtain them. The cloning of the novel andefficient enzyme 4,5-DOPA-extradiol dioxygenasefrom Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus in an expres-sion vector, and the subsequent heterologous expression in Escherichia coli cultures has led to the start-up of a biotechnological production system of individual pigments. The aim of this study was to search for the optimal conditions for the production of betalamic acid in microbial factories and the scaled-up obtention of the derived pigments. Four different betaxanthins and two betacyanins were obtained after the addition of non-transformable amines and amino acids and their condensation with thebetalamic acid produced by the dioxygenase. The scaled-up obtention and purification of betalains improved the yields of the previous methodologies reaching quantities by up to 150 mg of pure compounds.
