Entry
EC 1.14.99.30               Enzyme                                 
Name carotene 7,8-desaturase;
zeta-carotene desaturase
Class Oxidoreductases;
Acting on paired donors, with O2 as oxidant and incorporation or
reduction of oxygen. The oxygen incorporated need not be derived
from O2;
Miscellaneous
BRITE hierarchy
Sysname carotene,hydrogen-donor:oxygen oxidoreductase
Reaction(IUBMB) neurosporene + AH2 + O2 = lycopene + A + 2 H2O [RN:R04800]
Reaction(KEGG) R04800;
(other) R04798 R04803 R06961 R07511
Show
Substrate neurosporene [CPD:C05431];
AH2 [CPD:C00030];
O2 [CPD:C00007]
Product lycopene [CPD:C05432];
A [CPD:C00028];
H2O [CPD:C00001]
Comment Also acts on zeta-carotene twice to give lycopene and converts
beta-zeacarotene to gamma-carotene, and pro-zeta-carotene to
prolycopene (via double reaction)
