With or without light: comparing the reaction mechanism of dark-operative protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase with the energetic requirements of the light-dependent protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase

The addition of two electrons and two protons to the C(17)=C(18) bond in protochlorophyllide is catalyzed by a light-dependent enzyme relying on NADPH as electron donor, and by a light-independent enzyme bearing a (Cys)(3)Asp-ligated [4Fe–4S] cluster which is reduced by cytoplasmic electron donors i...
