Biosynthesis of carotenoids

1993
The carotenoids that are found in the photosynthetic pigment-protein complexes of higher plants, algae and phototrophic bacteria, including cyanobacteria, are C40 tetraterpenes. They are biosynthesised by a specialised branch of the isoprenoid or terpenoid pathway which is also used for the biosynthesis of a wide variety of other important compounds ...

Carotenoid Biosynthesis and Biotechnological Application

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2001
A survey is given on the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway leading to beta-carotene and its oxidation products in bacteria and plants. This includes the synthesis of prenyl pyrophosphates via the mevalonate or the 1-deoxyxylulose-5-phosphate pathways as well as the reaction sequences of carotenoid formation and interconversion together with the ...

Carotenoid biosynthesis in flowering plants

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2001
The general scheme of carotenoid biosynthesis has been known for more than three decades. However, molecular description of the pathway in plants began only in the 1990s after the genes for the carotenogenic enzymes were cloned. Recent data on the biochemistry of carotenogenesis and its regulation in vivo present the possibility of genetically ...

Carotenoid biosynthesis and manipulation

1993
The carotenoids are the most widespread group of pigments in nature, with an estimated yield of some 100 million tons annually. They are present in all photosynthetic organisms, and are responsible for most of the yellow to red colours of most fruits and flowers. The characteristic colours of many birds, insects and marine invertebrates are also due to

[244] Biosynthesis of carotenoids

1971
Publisher Summary The carotenoids represent one of the important groups of natural pigments, especially in the plant kingdom. Carotenoids are biosynthesized from mevalonic acid and isopentenyl pyrophosphate via geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate, two molecules of which condense to give phytoene, the probable C 40 precursor of all other carotenoids.
