-
catalytic mechanism involves a 1-electron transfer from the polyene pi-system of beta-carotene to a [2Fe-2S] cluster, generating a radical cation, which is able to rotate about the C-C single bond. Electron transfer back from the reduced [2Fe-2S] cluster would then generate the 9-cis-beta-carotene product. A mechanism involving single electron transfer from a [2Fe-2S] cluster to form a radical anion intermediate is also possible

additional information
?
-
the enzyme is strictly double bond-specific, solely targeting the C9-C10 double bond. DWARF27 does not introduce a 9-cis-double bond in 13-cis- or 15-cis-beta-carotene. Substrates are bicyclic carotenoids, including beta-, alpha-carotene and beta,beta-cryptoxanthin, that contain at least one unsubstituted beta-ionone ring
