Identification, Cloning, and Functional Characterization of Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenase (CCD) from <i>Olea europaea</i> and <i>Ipomoea nil</i>

The aromatic C<sub>13</sub> apocarotenoid β-ionone is a high-value natural-flavor and -fragrance compound derived from the oxidative cleavage of carotenoids. Carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) play a pivotal role in the biosynthesis of volatile apocarotenoids, particularly β-ionone....
