...Carotenoid metabolism and regulation in plants have since been described in previous review articles (Cunningham and Gantt, 1998; Hirschberg, 2001; Fraser and Bramley, 2004; DellaPenna and Pogson, 2006; Lu and Li, 2008; Cazzonelli and Pogson, 2010b; Zhu et al., 2010; Walter and Strack, 2011; Ruiz-Sola and Rodrı́guez-Concepcióna, 2012; Li and Yuan, 2013; Moise et al., 2013; Giuliano, 2014)....

...For example, PSY1 is preferentially localized in stroma, with its active form perhaps loosely associated with the membrane, whereas its product, phytoene, is largely present in the membrane and plastoglobuli, which may not be completely accessible to PDS as a precursor for carotene formation unless it is reintegrated into the membrane enzyme complex (Fraser et al., 1994; Fraser and Bramley, 2004; Nogueira et al., 2013)....

...Moreover, provitamin A carotenoids play essential roles in animals as precursors for the synthesis of retinoid, retinol (vitamin A), retinal (main visual pigment), and retinoic acid (which controls morphogenesis) (Fraser and Bramley, 2004; Krinsky and Johnson, 2005)....
