Pyrrolic and Dipyrrolic Chlorophyll Degradation Products in Plants and Herbivores. [PDF]
Chemistry, 2020 AbstractThe degradation of chlorophyll, the omnipresent green pigment, has been investigated intensively over the last 30 years resulting in many elucidated tetrapyrrolic degradation products. With a comparison to the degradation of the structurally similar heme, we hereby propose a novel additional chlorophyll degradation mechanism to mono‐ and ...

MdSGR2 Negatively Regulates Chlorophyll Degradation in Apple
HorticulturaeThe color of an apple is an important index of its appearance quality, which affects the fruit’s marketability and value. The green variety “Granny Smith” remains green when ripe, and the pigment in the peel is mainly chlorophyll.

Chlorophyll b to Chlorophyll a Conversion Precedes Chlorophyll Degradation in Hordeum vulgare L. [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1999 This study reveals by in vivo deuterium labeling that in higher plants chlorophyll (Chl) b is converted to Chl a before degradation. For this purpose, de-greening of excised green primary leaves of barley (Hordeum vulgare) was induced by permanent darkness in the presence of heavy water (80 atom % (2)H).

Research Progress in the Interconversion, Turnover and Degradation of Chlorophyll
Cells, 2021 Chlorophylls (Chls, Chl a and Chl b) are tetrapyrrole molecules essential for photosynthetic light harvesting and energy transduction in plants. Once formed, Chls are noncovalently bound to photosynthetic proteins on the thylakoid membrane.
