General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
2.5.1.96 physiological function the biosynthesis of 4,4'-diaponeurosporene starts with the condensation of two molecules of farnesyl diphosphate by dehydrosqualene synthase CrtM, the reaction product of this enzyme is dehydrosqualene and not squalene. Dehydrosqualene, i.e.4,4'-diapophytoene, is successively dehydrogenated by desaturase CrtN to form the yellow main intermediate 4,4'-diaponeurosporene Staphylococcus aureus
