Description
This is the last common enzyme in the biosynthesis of chlorophylls and heme. Two isoenzymes exist in plants: one in plastids and the other in mitochondria. This is the target enzyme of phthalimide-type and diphenylether-type herbicides. The enzyme from oxygen-dependent species contains FAD. Also slowly oxidizes mesoporphyrinogen IX.
