Bilirubin is produced nonenzymatically in plants to maintain chloroplast redox status

Bilirubin, a potent antioxidant, is a product of heme catabolism in heterotrophs. Heterotrophs mitigate oxidative stress resulting from free heme by catabolism into bilirubin via biliverdin. Although plants also convert heme to biliverdin, they are generally thought to be incapable of producing bili...
