Expression and Characterization of Mammalian Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenases
2019Carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) are nonheme iron enzymes that catalyze double bond processing of carotenoids and their apocarotenoid metabolites. Mammalian genomes encode three members of this protein family, namely BCO1, BCO2, and RPE65. Mutations and genetic polymorphism in the corresponding genes are associated with inherited blinding ...

Functional characterization of CmCCD1, a carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase from melon
Phytochemistry, 2006Carotenoids are nutritionally important tetraterpenoid pigments that upon oxidative cleavage give rise to apocarotenoid (norisoprene) aroma volatiles. beta-Carotene is the predominant pigment in orange-fleshed melon (Cucumis melo L.) varieties, reaching levels of up to 50 microg/gFW.

Characteristics of a new carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase NtCCD10 derived from Nicotiana tabacum
Planta, 2022A new carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase NtCCD10 from tobacco was characterized. There is some difference between NtCCD10 and CCD1 in structure. NtCCD10 can cleave the C5-C6 (C5'-C6') and C9-C10 (C9'-C10') double bonds of carotenoids and has high catalytic activity.

ZmCCD7/ZpCCD7 encodes a carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase mediating shoot branching
Planta, 2016ZmCCD7/ZpCCD7 encodes a carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase that may mediate strigolactone biosynthesis highly responsive to phosphorus deficiency and undergoes negative selection over domestication from Zea ssp. parviglumis to Zea mays. Carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase 7 (CCD7) functions to suppress shoot branching by controlling strigolactone biosynthesis.

Phylogenetic analysis and evolutionary studies of plant carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase gene
Gene, 2014The oxidative breakdown of carotenoid evidences the formation of apocarotenoids through carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs). Numerous CCDs and apocarotenoids have been identified and characterized in plants. Using available sequence data, a study was performed to investigate the phylogenetic relationship among CCD genes and to statistically ...

Bioprocess and Biosystems Engineering, 2022
Dihydro-β-ionone is a characteristic aroma compound of Osmanthus fragrans and is widely applied in the flavor & fragrance industry. However, the main focus is on chemical synthesis due to the metabolic pathways of dihydro-β-ionone is still unclear. Here, we explored the one-pot synthesis system for dihydro-β-ionone production using carotenoid cleavage ...

A Comprehensive Analysis of Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenases Genes in Solanum Lycopersicum
Plant Molecular Biology Reporter, 2015Carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) in plant species is one of the most important enzymes in the carotenoid metabolism. In this study, we performed a comprehensive analysis for the CCDs family in Solanum lycopersicum based on the whole tomato genome sequences and explored their expression pattern.

Vascular-specific activity of the Arabidopsis carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase 7 gene promoter
Plant Cell Reports, 2011Carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) are involved in the production of diverse apocarotenoids including phytohormones, the visual molecules and the aromatic volatile compounds derived from carotenoids. Here, we examined the spatial expression of four of the CCD genes (AtCcd1, 4, 7 and 8) among the nine members of this family in Arabidopsis by RT-PCR.

Cloning and Characterization of a Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenase from Artemisia Annua L
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2011In order to discover the formation mechanism of carotenoid derived aroma, which has been wildly used on protection of crop against insect attacks, the full-length cDNA of an Artemisia annua carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase (AaCCD1) was cloned by rapid amplification of cDNA ends.
