Chloroplast-encoded chlB is required for light-independent protochlorophyllide reductase activity in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.

The Plant cell - 1 Dec 1993

Li J, Goldschmidt-Clermont M, Timko M P

Abstract excerpt

A chloroplast-encoded gene, designated chlB, has been isolated from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, its nucleotide sequence determined, and its role in the light-independent reduction of protochlorophyllide to chlorophyllide demonstrated by gene disruption experiments. The C. reinhardtii chlB gene is similar to open reading frame 563 (orf563) of C. moewusii, and its encoded protein is a homolog of the Rhodobacter...
