Functional Analysis of β-Carotene Oxygenase 2 (<i>BCO2</i>) Gene in Yesso Scallop (<i>Patinopecten yessoensis</i>)

Functional Analysis of β-Carotene Oxygenase 2 (<i>BCO2</i>) Gene in Yesso Scallop (<i>Patinopecten yessoensis</i>)

Carotenoids are essential nutrients for humans and animals, and carotenoid coloration represents an important meat quality parameter for many farmed animals. Increasingly, studies have demonstrated that vertebrate carotenoid cleavage oxygenases (<i>CCO</i>s) are essential enzymes in caro...
