Functional analysis results of ChCCD1 and ChCCD4 proteins. (A) The influences of ChCCD1 and ChCCD4 expression on the color changes of E. coli strains that can accumulate lycopene (carrying pACCRT-EIB vector), β-carotene (carrying pACCAR16ΔcrtX vector) and zeaxanthin (carrying pACCAR25ΔcrtX vector); CK: control bacteria with no IPTG addition. (B) ChCCD1 can cleave lycopene into 6-methyl-5-heptene-2-one. (C) ChCCD1 can cleave β-carotene into β-ionone.
