Abstract excerpt
Chlorophyll biosynthetic heterogeneity is rooted mainly in parallel divinyl (DV) and monovinyl (MV) biosynthetic routes interconnected by 4-vinyl reductases (4VRs) that convert DV tetrapyrroles to MV tetrapyrroles by conversion of the vinyl group at position 4 of the macrocycle to ethyl. What is not clear at this stage is whether the various 4VR activities are catalyzed by one enzyme of broad specificity or by a...
