General Information

General Information	Comment	Organism
malfunction	in etiolated dgd1 (knockout mutant) seedlings, digalactosyldiacylglycerol content decreases to 20% of the wild-type level, the lattice structure of prolamellar bodies is disordered, and the development of prothylakoids is impaired. Membrane-associated processes of protochlorophyllide biosynthesis, formation of the protochlorophyllide-NADPH:protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase-NADPH complex, and dissociation of the complex after the photoconversion of protochlorophyllide to chlorophyllide were impaired in dgd1, although the photoconversion reaction by NADPH:protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase is not affected by the DGDG deficiency. Total carotenoid content also decreases in etiolated dgd1 seedlings, but the carotenoid composition is unchanged	Arabidopsis thaliana
physiological function	the enzyme is involved in the formation of the internal membrane structures in etioplasts as well as in membrane-associated processes of pigment biosynthesis and pigment-protein complex organization	Arabidopsis thaliana
