Abstract:
The present invention is related to a method for increasing the trans-specificity of a beta-carotene oxidase (BCO), particularly insect BCO, to be used in the production of vitamin A aldehyde (retinal) from conversion of beta-carotene, with at least about 75 to 100% of retinal in the trans-isoform.
