2.5.1.32 | geranylgeranyl diphosphate + geranylgeranyl diphosphate |
key enzyme in astaxanthin biosynthesis. Application of environmental stress results in increased steady-state mRNA level, light-induced expression of the gene may be under photosynthetic control |
2.5.1.32 | geranylgeranyl diphosphate + geranylgeranyl diphosphate |
first pathway-specific step in carotenoid biosynthesis |
2.5.1.32 | geranylgeranyl diphosphate + geranylgeranyl diphosphate |
first of four specific enzymes necessary for beta-carotene biosynthesis in plants |
2.5.1.32 | geranylgeranyl diphosphate + geranylgeranyl diphosphate |
first fully photoinduced step in carotenogenesis |
2.5.1.32 | geranylgeranyl diphosphate + geranylgeranyl diphosphate |
the enzyme is involved in the pathway of phytoene synthesis |
2.5.1.32 | geranylgeranyl diphosphate + geranylgeranyl diphosphate |
phytoene synthase-2 enzyme activity in tomato does not contribute to carotenoid synthesis in ripening fruit |
