Figure 4

Carotenoid biosyntehesis pathway in haloarchaea. The pathway from geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate to lycopene is shown. The insert portrays the comparison of the deduced phytoene dehydrogenase sequences of Haloferax volcanii (NC_013967.1) to those of Haloferax mediterranei (NC_017941.2) and Halobacterium salinarum (NC_010364.1). The numbers indicate the percentage of identical amino acids between the compared proteins. Pairwise analyses were made by using EMBOSS Water [73].
