General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
1.3.7.12 evolution RCCR is distantly related to a family of bilin reductases Arabidopsis thaliana
1.3.7.12 malfunction mutants defective in pheophorbide a oxygenase or red chlorophyll catabolite reductase, e.g. acd2 mutants that exhibit a light-dependent cell death phenotype with spontaneous spreading lesions, the mutants develop a lesion mimic phenotype, due to accumulation of breakdown intermediates Arabidopsis thaliana
1.3.7.12 metabolism the three chl catabolic enzymes, chlorophyllase, pheophorbide a oxygenase (PAO), and red chlorophyll catabolite reductase (RCCR) catalyze chlorophyll breakdown, which is very important for plant development and survival. Chlorophyll breakdown is a prerequisite to detoxify the potentially phototoxic pigment within the vacuoles in order to permit the remobilization of nitrogen from chlorophyll-binding proteins to proceed during senescence. Enzyme RCCR might be required to mediate an efficient interaction between red chlorophyll catabolite (still bound to PAO) and ferredoxin, thereby enabling a fast, regio-, and stereoselective reduction to primary fluorescent chlorophyll catabolite Arabidopsis thaliana
