Ligand Description :
ζ-Carotene is a carotene. It is different with α-Carotene and β-Carotene because it is acyclic. ζ-Carotene is similar in structure to lycopene, but has an additional 4 hydrogen atoms. ζ-Carotene is a carotenoid produced in most carotenogenic organisms. It is one of several sequentially synthesized molecules that are precursors to β-Carotene.
