Functional analysis of the Phycomyces carRA gene encoding the enzymes phytoene synthase and lycopene cyclase

Phycomyces carRA gene encodes a protein with two domains. Domain R is characterized by red carR mutants that accumulate lycopene. Domain A is characterized by white carA mutants that do not accumulate significant amounts of carotenoids. The carRA-encoded protein was identified as the lycopene cyclas...
