Functional Characterization of Lycopene β- and ε-Cyclases from a Lutein-Enriched Green Microalga <i>Chlorella sorokiniana</i> FZU60

Lutein is a high-value carotenoid with many human health benefits. Lycopene β- and ε-cyclases (LCYB and LCYE, respectively) catalyze the cyclization of lycopene into distinct downstream branches, one of which is the lutein biosynthesis pathway, via α-carotene. Hence, LCYB and LCYE are key enzymes in...
