metabolism | BchF may specifically be required for bacteriochlorophyll a biosynthesis | Chlorobaculum tepidum |
physiological function | in the bacteriochlorophyll a biosynthetic pathway, hydration of the C-3 vinyl group is catalyzed by BchF. Chlorobium tepidum gene bchF complements Rhodobacter capsulatus strains defective in specific steps of bacteriochlorophyll a biosynthesis | Chlorobaculum tepidum |
