Degradation Mechanisms, Encapsulation‐Based Stabilization, and Analytical Detection of Vitamin A
ABSTRACT Vitamin A is an important lipid‐soluble micronutrient essential for vision, immune function, and overall growth and development. However, vitamin A is unstable and susceptible to environmental factors because of its conjugated structure and inherent chemical reactivity.

Directed evolution of Arabidopsis thaliana carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase 1 [PDF]
Arabidopsis thaliana Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenase 1 (AtCCD1) is the role model for CCDs, a class of enzymes that cleave highly specific C=C double bonds in carotenoids and apo-carotenoids.

Carotenoid cleavage in chromoplasts of white and yellow-fleshed peach varieties
Background: In peach fruit, carotenoid accumulation in the mesocarp causes the difference between yellow and white genotypes. The latter are generally characterized by a peculiar and more intense aroma, because of higher release of volatiles deriving ...

Genomewide Analysis of Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenases in Unicellular and Filamentous Cyanobacteria [PDF]
Carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) are a group of enzymes that catalyze the oxidative cleavage steps from carotenoids to various carotenoid cleavage products. Some ccd genes have been identified and encoded enzymes functionally characterized in many

Down-regulation of the potato carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase 4 (StCCD4) transcript level led to tubers with altered morphology and sprouting activity, which also accumulated higher levels of violaxanthin and lutein leading to elevated carotenoid amounts.
