   1.14.99.63 | malfunction |
the photosynthetic activity of the crtO-deficient strain is not affected |
748145 |
| 1.14.99.63 | metabolism |
beta-carotene ketolase plays an important role in astaxanthin production |

| 1.14.99.63 | metabolism |
involved in carotenoid synthesis |
-, 748657 |
| 1.14.99.63 | metabolism |
possible interactions between the beta-carotene ketolase bkt1 and beta-carotene hydroxylases that impact partitioning of carbon flux into different carotenoid branch pathways |

| 1.14.99.63 | metabolism |
Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 is unique in that it contains only a single beta-carotene ketolase protein within its genome. Improved expression of this CrtO ketolase, via application of the pBAD promoter, demonstrates that despite the common reference to CrtO ketolases as mono ketolases, efficient expression can enable enhanced diketo activity |
747340 |

the enzyme is involved in astaxanthin biosynthesis |
747753 |
| 1.14.99.63 | metabolism |
the enzyme is involved in the astaxanthin biosynthesis pathway |
742396 |
| 1.14.99.63 | metabolism |
the enzyme is involved in the astaxanthin biosynthetic pathway |
748526 |
| 1.14.99.63 | metabolism |
the enzyme is involved in the conversion of beta-carotene into astaxanthin |
-, 748597 |
| 1.14.99.63 | metabolism |
the enzyme is required for echinenone biosynthesis in Synechocystis. The enzyme is not required for normal growth under standard or high light conditions |
