Marine bacteria produce many bioactive compounds, including carotenoids. However, the quality of bacterium carotenoids is relatively unknown. Therefore, in this study, a novel carotenoids-producing bacterium Brevundimonas scallop Zheng & Liu was isolated from Chlamys nobilis. The genome of the isolate was analyzed, carotenoid compounds were screened using HPLC-MS and the carotenoid production in B. scallop was monitored. The results revealed that the genome of B. scallop contained a carotenoid synthesis gene cluster, which involved in astaxanthin and hydroxy-astaxanthin biosynthesis. The 2,2'-dihydroxy-astaxanthin was the major carotenoid produced by B. scallop. The optimum culture condition for the highest carotenoids production (1303.62 +/- 61.06 mu g/g dry cells) for B. scallop was at temperature and salinity of 20 degrees C and 3% salt, respectively, in 10 g/L glucose as carbon source. The results showed the B. scallop is a new carotenoids resource in marine bivalve, which has an excellent antioxidative activity and potential industrial use.
