General Information

General Information	Comment	Organism
malfunction	the combined manipulation of crtF and crtA allows new carotenoids to be produced and broadenes the diversity of structurally different carotenoids synthesized by Rubriovivax gelatinosus	Rubrivivax gelatinosus
physiological function	the enzyme is involved in spheroidene biosynthesis pathway and spirilloxanthin biosynthesis pathway. Methylated carotenoids, such as spheroidene and spirilloxanthin, function as accessory pigments in the light-harvesting and reaction-center complexes of purple bacteria	Rubrivivax gelatinosus
