Two new 7-carbon compounds, 1 and 2, have been found in the culture medium of Phycomyces blakesleeanus. A genetic test showed that they derive from β-carotene. These new molecules represent the missing link that proves that β-carotene is split into fragments of 18, 15 and 7 carbon fragments, each head of a separate family of apocarotenoids.
在布雷克利须霉的培养基中发现了两种新的 7 碳化合物 1 和 2。基因测试表明它们源自β-胡萝卜素。这些新分子代表了缺失的一环,证明β-胡萝卜素被分成18、15和7个碳片段,每个片段都是类胡萝卜素的一个单独家族的头。
