the cruA::aadA mutant does not produce carotenoids with cyclic end groups. The cruA mutant shows a severe growth defect. Wild-type Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002 produces large amounts of the dicyclic carotenoids beta-carotene and zeaxanthin as well as the monocyclic myxoxanthophyll but does not accumulate lycopene or gamma-carotene. The cruA mutant strain accumulates significant amounts of lycopene and gamma-carotene |

the suppression of enzyme expression leads to lower expression levels of genes in the carotenoid biosynthesis pathway and to reduced accumulation of carotenoids, chlorophyll, and abscisic acid |

transgenic plants with higher or reduced levels of DcLcyb1 have incremented or reduced levels of chlorophyll, total carotenoids and beta-carotene in leaves and in the storage roots, respectively. In addition, changes in the expression of DcLcyb1 are accompanied by a modulation in the expression of key endogenous carotenogenic genes |
