ENZYME entry: EC 2.5.1.133

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/2.5.1.133

Accepted Name
bacteriochlorophyll a synthase
Reaction catalysed
bacteriochlorophyllide a + (2E,6E,10E)-geranylgeranyl diphosphate + H(+) = geranylgeranyl-bacteriochlorophyllide a + diphosphate
Comment(s)
The enzyme catalyzes the addition of a geranylgeranyl hydrophobic chain to bacteriochlorophyllide a via an ester bond with the 17-propionate residue. The side chain is later modified to a phytyl chain, resulting in bacteriochlorophyll a.
