To introduce the final step from beta-carotene to retinal, we use the gene ''ninaB'' from ''D. melanogaster''. This gene encodes the protein beta-carotene 15,15’-monooxygenase, which cleaves beta-carotene to produce two molecules of retinal under the consumption of oxygen. <br>

We have inserted the part 343006 into a different plasmid from the K274210 part since both parts are very long, so a plasmid containing both wouldn't have been viable.
