Carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases and their apocarotenoid products in plants
Carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) catalyze the cleavage of carotenoids in various organisms. In Arabidopsis, the CCD enzyme family consists of nine members, which are further divided into two subfamilies: five 9-cis epoxycarotenoid dioxygenases (NCEDs) and four CCDs.

Carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) are a large family of non-heme iron (II) dependent enzymes. CCDs catalyse the selective oxidative cleavage of carotenoids to produce apocarotenoids. Apocarotenoid derived molecules form important signalling molecules in plants in the form of abscisic acid and strigolactone and in mammals in the form of retinal ...

A family of carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) produces diverse apocarotenoid compounds via the oxidative cleavage of carotenoids as substrates. Their types are highly dependent on the action of the CCD family to cleave the double bonds at the specific position on the carotenoids.

Identification of Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenases from Nostoc sp. PCC 7120 with Different Cleavage Activities [PDF]
Carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) are a class of enzymes that oxidatively cleave carotenoids into apocarotenoids. Dioxygenases have been identified in plants and animals and produce a wide variety of cleavage products. Despite what is known about apocarotenoids in higher organisms, very little is known about apocarotenoids and CCDs in ...
