General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
5.5.1.18 metabolism the cyclation of lycopene into either alpha- or beta-carotene is a key branch point in the pathway of carotenoid biosynthesis in plants and some algal classes and has been proposed as a control step, the relative activities of LCYe and LCYb determine the proportion of carotenoids directed to each branch of the pathway, overview Chromochloris zofingiensis
