Comment	blh is a brp-like homolog (brp is vng1465), which has been implicated in retinal biosynthesis. Deletion of the blh gene resulted in lower production of retinal, consistent with its function as a Î²-carotene 15,15'-dioxygenase, for conversion of Î²-carotene to retinal. See Peck et al. [J Biol Chem. 2001 Feb 23;276(8):5739-44](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11092896).
