THE TOTAL SYNTHESIS OF CHLOROPHYLL [PDF]
Chlorophyll a, the major green pigment of the plant world, is certainly the most widespread and conspicuous of organic natural products. Few can be unaware of its decorative function, and all are beneficiaries of its central role in transforming sunlight into substance and sustenance.

Controls on Chlorophyll Synthesis in Barley [PDF]
In 7- to 10-day-old leaves of etiolated barley (Hordeum vulgare), all of the enzymes that convert delta-aminolevulinic acid to chlorophyll are nonlimiting during the first 6 to 12 hours of illumination, even in the presence of inhibitors of protein synthesis.

Redox regulation of plastid gene expression and different metabolic pathways promotes many activities of redox-sensitive proteins. We address the question of how the plastid redox state and the contributing reducing enzymes control the enzymes of ...

Molecular Characterization of Mg-Chelatase CHLI Subunit in Pea (Pisum sativum L.)
As a rate-limiting enzyme for chlorophyll biosynthesis, Mg-chelatase is a promising target for improving photosynthetic efficiency. It consists of CHLH, CHLD, and CHLI subunits.

Systemic suppression of the shoot metabolism upon rice root nematode infection [PDF]
Hirschmanniella oryzae is the most common plant-parasitic nematode in flooded rice cultivation systems. These migratory animals penetrate the plant roots and feed on the root cells, creating large cavities, extensive root necrosis and rotting.

Proton-Electron Hyperfine Coupling Constants of the Chlorophyll a Cation Radical by ENDOR Spectroscopy [PDF]
In this paper we describe the assignment of the major coupling constants in monomer chlorophyll a cation free radical by ENDOR spectroscopy. To facilitate chemical manipulation methylpyrochlorophyllide a has been used as a stand-in, and a suite of six ...

Abstract Chlorophyll (Chl) serves a number of essential functions, capturing and converting light energy as a component of photosystem supercomplexes. Chl degradation during leaf senescence is also required for adequate degeneration of chloroplasts and salvaging of nutrients from senescent leaves.
