LITERATURE
cDNA encoding capsanthin-capsorubin synthase is placed under the transcriptional control of a tobamovirus subgenomic promoter. Leaves from transfeceted plants expressing capsanthin-capsorubin synthase develop an orange phenotype and accumulate high levels of capsanthin. This phenomenon is associated with thylakoid membrane distortion and reduction of grana stacking

the promoter of Capsicum annum capsanthin/capsorubin synthase is strongly upregulated during tomato ripening of transgenic tomato plants that produce fruits of the climacteric type (characterized by an increase in respiration and ethylene production). Induction occurs at the mature green stage preceding ripening. Ethylene positively influences the expression of the gene in tomato. Water loss strongly induces the promoter
