zeaxanthin

Zeaxanthin {n}biochem.

• Zeaxanthin can be further processed to obtain zeaxanthin-diglucoside by Zeaxanthin glucosyl transferase ("crtX").
• In addition "Synechococcus" also contains zeaxanthin but no diagnostic pigment for this organism is known.
• The principal natural form of zeaxanthin is (3R,3′R)-zeaxanthin.
• There is preliminary epidemiological evidence that increasing lutein and zeaxanthin intake lowers the risk of cataract development.
• In 1995, Howard started work with Richard Bone and John Landrum at Florida International University. Together they patented a dietary supplement containing meso-zeaxanthin, lutein and zeaxanthin.

• Of the three macular carotenoids (lutein, zeaxanthin and "meso"-zeaxanthin), "meso"-zeaxanthin is the most powerful antioxidant, but a combination of the macular carotenoids has been shown to exhibit greatest antioxidant potential, when compared to the individual carotenoids at the same total concentration.
• The yellow color is due to lutein and zeaxanthin, which are yellow or orange carotenoids known as xanthophylls.
• Phaseic acid is a product of abscisic acid, which is itself the product of the C40 carotenoid zeaxanthin via at least four enzymatic steps.
• Violaxanthin and zeaxanthin are carotenoid molecules within the chloroplasts called xanthophylls.
• Zeaxanthin then reacts with O2, NADPH (H+), and reduced ferredoxin [...] cluster in the presence of the enzyme zeaxanthin epoxidase (ZE) to produce antheraxanthin which reacts in a similar fashion to produce violaxanthin.
