additional information deletion of gene bchF in a BChl b-producing strain of Rhodobacter sphaeroides leads to the production of an analogue of bacteriochlorophyllide g, BChl gP, where P is phytyl, rather than the native BChl aP. In the bchF-deletion mutant, hydration of the C3-vinyl group in 3-vinyl bacteriochlorophyllide a is blocked, but this precursor can be esterified with phytol. Enzyme BchF deletion- in the DELTAbciA/bchXYZBv background results in formation of BChl g esterified with phytol (BChl gP) Cereibacter sphaeroides
