15-Cis-phytoene desaturase (EC 1.3.5.5, phytoene desaturase (ambiguous), PDS, plant-type phytoene desaturase) is an enzyme with systematic name 15-cis-phytoene:plastoquinone oxidoreductase.[1][2][3][4] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- 15-cis-phytoene + 2 plastoquinone 9,15,9'-tricis-zeta-carotene + 2 plastoquinol (overall reaction)
- (1a) 15-cis-phytoene + plastoquinone 15,9'-dicis-phytofluene + plastoquinol
- (1b) 15,9'-dicis-phytofluene + plastoquinone 9,15,9'-tricis-zeta-carotene + plastoquinol
This enzyme is involved in carotenoid biosynthesis in plants and cyanobacteria.
