Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Vitvi13g01727
• Gene Symbol: VvCCD1
• Gene Name: carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase1
• Genome: Vitis vinifera PN40024.v4
• Species: Vitis vinifera

Functional Descriptions:

• A Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenase from Vitis vinifera L.: functional characterization and expression during grape berry development in relation to C13-norisoprenoid accumulation.
• Recombinant expression of VvCCD1 confirmed that the gene encoded a functional CCD. Experimental evidence was obtained that VvCCD1 cleaves zeaxanthin symmetrically yielding 3-hydroxy-β-ionone, a C13-norisoprenoidic compound, and a C14-dialdehyde.
• VvCCD1 is induced at the early stages of the grape berry development.
• These results showed that recombinant VvCCD1 catalyses the symmetrical cleavage of zeaxanthin to generate 3-hydroxy-β-ionone and 4,9-dimethyldodeca-2,4,6,8,10-pentaene-1,12-dialdehyde.
