The enzyme DWARF27 (D27) catalyzes the reversible isomerization of all‐trans‐ into 9‐cis‐β‐carotene, initiating strigolactone (SL) biosynthesis. Genomes of higher plants encode two D27‐homologs, D27‐like1 and ‐like2, with unknown functions. Here, we investigated the enzymatic activity and biological function of the Arabidopsis D27‐like1. In vitro enzymatic assays and expression in Synechocystis sp...
Carotenoid‐derived regulatory metabolites and hormones are generally known to arise through the oxidative cleavage of a single double bond in the carotenoid backbone, which yields mono‐carbonyl products called apocarotenoids. However, the extended conjugated double bond system of these pigments predestines them also to repeated cleavage forming dialdehyde products, diapocarotenoids, which have been...
