Predicted to enable beta,beta-carotene-9',10'-cleaving oxygenase activity; beta-carotene 15,15'-dioxygenase activity; and carotenoid dioxygenase activity. Predicted to be involved in isoprenoid metabolic process; regulation of mitochondrial membrane potential; and regulation of reactive oxygen species metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within xanthophyll metabolic process. Predicted to be located in ribosome. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Orthologous to human BCO2 (beta-carotene oxygenase 2).
