Accepted name
all-trans-10′-apo-β-carotenal 13,14-cleaving dioxygenase
Reaction
all-trans-10′-apo-β-carotenal + O2 = 13-apo-β-carotenone + (2E,4E,6E)-4-methylocta-2,4,6-trienedial
Other name(s)
CCD8 (gene name), MAX4 (gene name), NCED8 (gene name), all-trans-10′-apo-β-carotenal:O2 oxidoreductase (13,14-cleaving)
