Phytoene desaturase (lycopene-forming) of a bacterial phytoene desaturase into transgenic tomatos increased the lycopene content without the need to alter several of the plants enzymes. This approach was later used in rice to increase its β-carotene content resulting in the Golden Rice project. Phytoene desaturase (lycopene-forming) Phytoene desaturase (lycopene-forming) (CrtI, "four-step phytoene desaturase") (, "15-cis-phytoene:acceptor oxidoreductase (lycopene-forming)") are enzymes found in archaea, bacteria and fungi that are involved in carotenoid biosynthesis. They catalyze the conversion of colorless 15-"cis"-phytoene into a bright red lycopene in a biochemical pathway called the poly-trans pathway. The same process in plants and cyanobacteria utilizes four separate enzymes in
Blue Is the Warmest Colour trying to make their flesh more familiar to us than his own." "Blue Is the Warmest Colour" is also filled with visual symbolism. The colour blue is used extensively throughout the film—from the lighting in the gay club Adèle visits, to the dress she wears in the last scene and most notably, in Emma's hair and eyes. For Adèle, blue represents emotional intensity, curiosity, love, and sadness. Adèle also references Pablo Picasso a number of times, who famously went through a melancholy Blue Period. As Emma grows out of her relationship with Adèle and their passion wanes, she removes the
