1.13.11.68

Accepted name:

9-cis-β-carotene 9′,10′-cleaving dioxygenase

Reaction:

9-cis-β-carotene + O₂ = 9-cis-10′-apo-β-carotenal + β-ionone

Glossary:

β-ionone = (3E)-4-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-en-1-yl)but-3-en-2-one

Other name(s):

CCD7 (gene name); MAX3 (gene name); NCED7 (gene name)

Systematic name:

9-cis-β-carotene:oxygen oxidoreductase (9′,10′-cleaving)

Comments:

Requires Fe²⁺. The enzyme participates in a pathway leading to biosynthesis of strigolactones, plant hormones involved in promotion of symbiotic associations known as arbuscular mycorrhiza.

1.13.11.69

Accepted name:

carlactone synthase

Reaction:

9-cis-10′-apo-β-carotenal + 2 O₂ = carlactone + (2E,4E,6E)-7-hydroxy-4-methylhepta-2,4,6-trienal

Glossary:

carlactone = 3-methyl-5-{[(1Z,3E)-2-methyl-4-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-en-1-yl)buta-1,3-dien-1-yl]oxy}-5H-furan-2-one

Other name(s):

CCD8 (gene name); MAX4 (gene name); NCED8 (gene name)

Systematic name:

9-cis-10′-apo-β-carotenal:oxygen oxidoreductase (14,15-cleaving, carlactone-forming)

Comments:

Requires Fe²⁺. The enzyme participates in a pathway leading to biosynthesis of strigolactones, plant hormones involved in promotion of symbiotic associations known as arbuscular mycorrhiza. Also catalyses EC 1.13.11.70, all-trans-10′-apo-β-carotenal 13,14-cleaving dioxygenase, but 10-fold slower.
