General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
1.3.5.5 physiological function three functional units, comprising genes PSY1, PDS/ZISO, and ZDS/CrtISO, are responsible for the synthesis of 15-cis-phytoene, 9,9'-di-cis-zeta-carotene, and all-trans-lycopene, respectively. Silencing of desaturase PDS results in the induction of the isomerase in the same functional unit, ZISO. PDS-silenced fruits show a 55% reduction of total carotenoids, with phytoene and phytofluene being the most abundant compounds. All-trans-zeat-carotene is detectable in nonsilenced fruits Solanum lycopersicum
1.3.5.6 physiological function three functional units, comprising genes PSY1, PDS/ZISO, and ZDS/CrtISO, are responsible for the synthesis of 15-cis-phytoene, 9,9'-di-cis-zeta-carotene, and all-trans-lycopene, respectively. All-trans-z-carotene is detectable in nonsilenced fruits and greatly increases in ZDS-silenced ones Solanum lycopersicum
