General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism Bacillus firmus synthesizes C30 carotenoids via farnesyl pyrophosphate, forming apophytoene as the first committed step in the pathway. The products of the pathway is methyl 4'-[(6-O-acyl-glycosyl)oxy]-4,4'-diapolycopen-4-oic acid and 4,4'-diapolycopen-4,4'-dioic acid with putative glycosyl esters Cytobacillus firmus
