Description
The enzyme, found in higher plants, green algae, and some phototrophic bacteria, is involved in the production of monovinyl versions of (bacterio)chlorophyll pigments from their divinyl precursors. It can also act on 3,8-divinyl chlorophyllide a. cf. EC 1.3.7.13, 3,8-divinyl protochlorophyllide a 8-vinyl-reductase (ferredoxin).
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC～-80 ºC.
Synonyms
DVR (gene name); bciA (gene name); [4-vinyl]chlorophyllide a reductase; 4VCR; chlorophyllide-a:NADP+ oxidoreductase; divinyl chlorophyllide a 8-vinyl-reductase; plant-type divinyl chlorophyllide a 8-vinyl-reductase
Reaction
protochlorophyllide a + NADP+ = 3,8-divinyl protochlorophyllide a + NADPH + H+
