Lycopene bent rather than linear shape. Different isomers were shown to have different stabilities due to their molecular energy (highest stability: 5-cis ≥ all-trans ≥ 9-cis ≥ 13-cis > 15-cis > 7-cis > 11-cis: lowest). In human blood, various "cis"-isomers constitute more than 60% of the total lycopene concentration, but the biological effects of individual isomers have not been investigated. Carotenoids like lycopene are found in photosynthetic pigment-protein complexes in plants, photosynthetic bacteria, fungi, and algae. They are responsible for the bright orange–red colors of fruits and vegetables, perform various functions in photosynthesis, and protect photosynthetic organisms from excessive light damage.
This Is Colour of this, the band went on to tour the album and remained a popular live heavy music act all over the UK and began to tour Europe, they shined particularly in Leeds and London. Following the release of No Brainer, This Is Colour released two singles, "Make The Most" (Recorded and produced by Keir Atkinson, Little Massingham, Norfolk, 2010) and "Exhausting The Resource" (Recorded and produced by Keir Atkinson, LP, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, 2011), for which This Is Colour created their first music video, directed and edited by their guitarist Tom Cronin, with the help of photographer Jordan Green.
