Identification and Functional Characterization of Tomato CircRNAs Derived from Genes Involved in Fruit Pigment Accumulation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
CircRNAs, a class of widespread circular RNAs produced from precursor mRNA back-splicing, have been implicated in regulation of gene expression in eukaryotes, but their biological functions in plants have not yet been elucidated.

The responses of two genes encoding phytoene synthase (Psy) and phytoene desaturase (Pds) to nitrogen limitation and salinity up-shock with special emphasis on carotenogenesis in Dunaliella parva

open access: yes, 2018
Green alga Dunaliella parva can adapt to environmental stresses such as salinity up-shock and nitrogen limitation which are associated with carotenoid accumulation. However, the underlying molecular basis related to the change of carotenoid content needs

Effect of BASF experimental compounds on phytoene accumulation in the presence of 200 µM norflurazon.

open access: yes, 2014
Inhibition of phytoene accumulation by compound treatment was expressed in percentage of inhibition related to maximum accumulation in control assays. All compounds were tested at 100 µM.aNumbering corresponds to structures in Witschel et al. (2013) [41].

Genetic dissection of phytoene desaturation in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yes, 1997
Carotenoids are C₄₀ tetraterpenoids synthesized by nuclear-encoded, multi-enzyme complexes located in the plastids of higher plants. In order to further understand the components and mechanisms involved in carotenoid biosynthesis, our laboratory has ...

The cyanobacterium Gloeobacter violaceus PCC 7421 uses bacterial-type phytoene desaturase in carotenoid biosynthesis

open access: yes, 2005
Carotenoid composition and its biosynthetic pathway in the cyanobacterium Gloeobacter violaceus PCC 7421 were investigated. β-Carotene and (2S,2′S)-oscillol 2,2′-di(α-l-fucoside), and echinenone were major and minor carotenoids, respectively.

Phytoene Accumulation in the Novel Microalga Chlorococcum sp. Using the Pigment Synthesis Inhibitor Fluridone

open access: yes, 2019
Carotenoids are lipophilic pigments found in plants and algae, as well as some bacteria, archaea, and fungi that serve two functions—(1) as light harvesting molecules—primary carotenoids, and (2) as antioxidants, acting against reactive oxygen species ...

Metabolism of plastid terpenoids: in vitro inhibition of phytoene synthesis by phenethyl pyrophosphate derivatives

open access: yes, 1987
The inhibition of partially purified phytoene synthetase activity from Capsicum annuum chromoplasts was investigated using aminophenethyl pyrophosphate and azidophenethyl pyrophosphate.
