EC 3.1.1.100 Details

show Brenda entry

EC number

3.1.1.100

Accepted name

chlorophyllide a hydrolase

Reaction

chlorophyllide a + H₂O = 8-ethyl-12-methyl-3-vinyl-bacteriochlorophyllide d + methanol + CO₂

Other name(s)

bciC (gene name)

Systematic name

chlorophyllide-a hydrolase

Comment

This enzyme, found in green sulfur bacteria (Chlorobiaceae) and green filamentous bacteria (Chloroflexaceae), catalyses the first committed step in the biosynthesis of bacteriochlorophylls c, d and e, the removal of the C-13²-methylcarboxyl group from chlorophyllide a. The reaction is very similar to the conversion of pheophorbide a to pyropheophorbide a during chlorophyll a degradation, which is catalysed by EC 3.1.1.82, pheophorbidase.
