FunFam 91: 15-cis-phytoene desaturase, chloroplastic/chromopl...

There are 1 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
15-cis-phytoene desaturase. [EC: 1.3.5.5]
15-cis-phytoene + 2 plastoquinone = 9,15,9'-tri-cis-zeta-carotene + 2 plastoquinol.
  • This enzyme is involved in carotenoid biosynthesis in plants and cyanobacteria.
  • The enzyme from Synechococcus can also use NAD(+) and NADP(+) as electron acceptor under anaerobic conditions.
  • The enzyme from Gentiana lutea shows no activity with NAD(+) or NADP(+).
