| | .beta.,.epsilon.-Carotene Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | α-Carotene is the second most common form of carotene. A high dietary intakes of α-Carotene and other carotenoids may decrease the risk of gastric cancer, but data from population studies are inconsistent. | | Definition | ChEBI: A cyclic carotene with a beta- and an epsilon-ring at opposite ends respectively. | | Biochem/physiol Actions | One of the primary isomers of carotene, racemic form of metabolite in carotenoid biosynthesis, biosynthesis of plant secondary metabolites, biosynthesis of terpenoids and steroids and the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites |
