EC 3.1.1.14 Details
EC number
3.1.1.14
Accepted name
chlorophyllase
Reaction
chlorophyll + H2O = phytol + chlorophyllide
Other name(s)
CLH, Chlase
Systematic name
chlorophyll chlorophyllidohydrolase
CAS registry number
9025-96-1
Comment
Chlorophyllase has been found in higher plants, diatoms, and in the green algae Chlorella [3]. This enzyme forms part of the chlorophyll degradation pathway and is thought to take part in de-greening processes such as fruit ripening, leaf senescence and flowering, as well as in the turnover and homeostasis of chlorophyll [4]. This enzyme acts preferentially on chlorophyll a but will also accept chlorophyll b and pheophytins as substrates [5]. Ethylene and methyl jasmonate, which are known to accelerate senescence in many species, can enhance the activity of the hormone-inducible form of this enzyme [5].
