Identification
HMDB Protein ID CDBP03880
Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Beta,beta-carotene 9',10'-oxygenase
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. B-diox-II
  2. Beta-carotene dioxygenase 2
Gene Name BCO2
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Secondary metabolites biosynthesis, transport and catabolism
Specific Function Asymmetrically cleaves beta-carotene at the 9',10' double bond resulting in the formation of beta-apo-10'-carotenal and beta-ionone. Besides beta-carotene, lycopene is also oxidatively cleaved. The apocarotenals formed by this enzyme may be the precursors for the biosynthesis of retinoic acid or exert unknown physiological effects.
