Identification of the gene responsible for torulene cleavage in the Neurospora carotenoid pathway.
-
CAO-2 is the torulene dioxygenase of the neurosporaxanthin biosynthetic pathway; purified enzyme cleaves torulene to beta-apo-4'-carotenal, and cao-2 disruption abolishes neurosporaxanthin and accumulates torulene.
"CAO-2 is the enzyme responsible for the oxidative cleavage of torulene in the neurosporaxanthin biosynthetic pathway"
-
cao-2 expression is light-induced in a White Collar (WC-1/WC-2) dependent manner, the opposite of the light-independent cao-1.
"cao-2 mRNA was induced by light in a WC-1 and WC-2 dependent manner"
