Palmitoylation of Metazoan Carotenoid Oxygenases

Palmitoylation of Metazoan Carotenoid Oxygenases

Abundant in nature, carotenoids are a class of fat-soluble pigments with a polyene tetraterpenoid structure. They possess antioxidant properties and their consumption leads to certain health benefits in humans. Carotenoid cleavage oxygenases (CCOs) are a superfamily of enzymes which oxidatively clea...
