Hot Spots of Phytoene Desaturase from <i>Rhodobacter sphaeroides</i> Influencing the Desaturation of Phytoene
Phytoene desaturase (CrtI, E.C. 1.3.99.31) shows variable desaturation activity, thereby introducing different numbers of conjugated double bonds (CDB) into the substrate phytoene. In particular, <i>Rhodobacter sphaeroides</i> CrtI is known to introduce additional 6 CDBs into the phytoen...
