2.5.1.133 | malfunction |
the enzyme-deficient mutant of Rhodobacter sphaeroides, BG1 strain, is photosynthetically incompetent. The function can be restored by I44F mutant chlorophyll synthase of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 |

2.5.1.133 | physiological function |
comparison of BchG gene sequences from Chloroflexus aurantiacus, Chloronema sp., and Roseiflexus castenholzii HL08. All deduced amino acid sequences show a highly conserved region, which includes the motif DRXXD, characteristic of polyprenyltransferases, which is extended to DREVDAINEP for green sulfur bacteria |

2.5.1.133 | physiological function |
heterologous expression of the bchG gene product in Escherichia coli confers bacteriochlorophyll a synthase activity. Bacteriochlorophyll a synthase utilizes bacteriochlorophyllide a, but not chlorophyllide a as a substrate |
