Incomplete Hydrogenation by Geranylgeranyl Reductase from a Proteobacterial Phototroph Halorhodospira halochloris, Resulting in the Production of Bacteriochlorophyll with a Tetrahydrogeranylgeranyl Tail

Light harvesting and charge separation are functions of chlorophyll and bacteriochlorophyll pigments. While most photosynthetic organisms use (bacterio)chlorophylls with a phytyl (2-phytenyl) group as the hydrophobic isoprenoid tail, Halorhodospira halochloris, an anoxygenic photosynthetic bacterium...
