Conserved residues in Ycf54 are required for protochlorophyllide formation in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

Chlorophylls (Chls) are modified tetrapyrrole molecules, essential for photosynthesis. These pigments possess an isocyclic E ring formed by the Mg-protoporphyrin IX monomethylester cyclase (MgPME–cyclase). We assessed the in vivo effects of altering seven highly conserved residues within Ycf54, whic...
