Description | This entry represents a group of geranylgeranyl reductases specific for the biosyntheses of bacteriochlorophyll and chlorophyll [ ]. It is unclear whether the processes of isoprenoid ligation to the chlorin ring and reduction of the geranylgeranyl chain to a phytyl chain are necessarily ordered the same way in all species (see introduction to []). | Name | Geranylgeranyl reductase, plant/prokaryotic |
Short Name | BchP_ChlP_pln/prok | Type | Family |
