MetaCyc Pathway: chlorophyll a biosynthesis I in Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942

Add experiment(s):


Divinyl chlorophyllide a 8-vinyl-reductase (in reverse):
chlorophyllide a2 + NADPH + H+→chlorophyllide a + NADP+
(EC 1.3.1.75)
Synpcc7942_0501
Chlorophyll synthase:
chlorophyllide a + phytyl diphosphate + H+→chlorophyll a + diphosphate
(EC 2.5.1.62)
Synpcc7942_2084 (chlG)

Candidate genes for each reaction are identified from best hits to MetaCyc; by matching EC numbers (which are assigned by TIGRFam, SEED, or best hits to KEGG); or by matching SEED roles to KEGG reactions to MetaCyc reactions. See the "Protein" tab of each gene for more information
