The pathway for producing beta-carotene. Yeast naturally produce GGPP but no other intermediates in beta-carotene pathway, crtYB and crtI are needed to to complete the pathway for beta-carotene production. Notice crtYB codes for two proteins needed in the pathway. CrtE further improves beta-carotene production as it aides in the production of the starting product, GGPP. | The pathway for producing beta-carotene.

The pathway for producing beta-carotene. Yeast naturally produce GGPP but no other intermediates in beta-carotene pathway, crtYB and crtI are needed to to complete the pathway for beta-carotene production. Notice crtYB codes for two proteins needed in the pathway. CrtE further improves beta-carotene production as it aides in the production of the starting product, GGPP.
The pathway for producing beta-ionone from beta-carotene. This process only involves the expression of one gene, CCD, which codes for enzymatic oxidative cleavage 1 and 2, which cleaves the ends of beta-carotene to produce two beta-ionone molecules.
