General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
1.13.11.71 malfunction using BCO2 knock out mice it is shown that BCO2 catalyzes beta-apocarotenoid production in vivo. Bco2-/- mice show a significant hepatic accumulation of beta-cryptoxanthin as compared to Bco1-/- and wild-type mice Mus musculus
1.14.99.36 malfunction genetic disruption of BCO1 results in beta-carotene accumulation and vitamin A deficiency accompanied by a BCO2-dependent production of minor amounts of beta-apo-10'-carotenol, which can be esterified and transported by the same proteins as vitamin A but with a lower affinity and slower reaction kinetics. all-trans-Retinol treatment of vitamin A-deprived Bco1-/- mice decreases hepatic retinol-binding protein levels Mus musculus
1.14.99.36 physiological function beta-carotene-15,15'-oxygenase BCO1, but not beta-carotene-9',10'-oxygenase BCO2, is critical for retinoid homeostasis. In wild-type mice, beta-apo-10'-carotenol is converted to retinoids by BCO1 Mus musculus
