The biosynthesis of cyclic carotenes [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1967 1. The incorporation of (3RS)-[2−14C,(4R)-4−3H1]mevalonic acid into various cyclic carotenes in the fruit of the tomato mutant delta has been studied. The results confirm our previous view that the α-ionone ring of α-carotene does not arise by isomerization of a β-ionone residue, and show that the same is also true for the α-ionone ring of δ- and ...
