additional information | engineered pathway design for the heterologous production of bacteriochlorophyll in the non-photosynthetic host Escherichia coli expressing the enzyme involved originating from different organisms, overview. CTBciA is capable of reducing the C8-vinyl group of several different intermediates in the BChl pathway. No mono-vinyl forms of any of the pathway intermediates upon coexpression of the 8-vinyl reductase with BchSID and BchM. PIX overproducing cells expressing BchSID and CTBciA alone produce two additional compounds, mono-vinyl PIX (mvPIX) and mono-vinyl MgPIX (mvMgPIX), indicating that CTBciA is capable of reducing the C8-vinyl group on both the Mg chelated and the non-Mg chelated porphyrin molecule | Chlorobaculum tepidum |

additional information | the 8-vinyl reductase is substrate promiscuous, capable of reducing the C8-vinyl group of Mg protoporphyrin IX, Mg protoporphyrin IX methylester, and divinyl protochlorophyllide. The enzyme activity is dependent upon the presence of chelated Mg2+ in the porphyrin ring, with no activity against non-Mg2+ chelated intermediates observed. CTBciA is capable of reducing the C8-vinyl group of several different intermediates in the BChl pathway | Chlorobaculum tepidum | ? | - |

metabolism | green bacteria like Chlorobaculum tepidum are unique in that they are able to produce different types of Chls and Bchls, and encode in their genomes several homologs (BchS, T) of the large subunit (BchH) of the magnesium chelatase, which may play a role in regulating the types of (B)Chls produced | Chlorobaculum tepidum |
