Function of Tetrapyrroles, Regulation of Tetrapyrrole Metabolism and Methods for Analyses of Tetrapyrroles

open access: yesProcedia Chemistry, 2015
AbstractTetrapyrroles are essential cofactors and pigments. Photosynthetic organisms share the use of the highest diversity of tetrapyrrole end products. This report intends to call readers’ attention to the recent achievements in research on tetrapyrrole biosynthesis and the current hot topics in tetrapyrrole biosynthesis, including posttranslational ...

Towards triptycene functionalization and triptycene-linked porphyrin arrays

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2020
Herein, 9,10-diethynyltriptycene is investigated for its use as a rigid isolating unit in the synthesis of multichromophoric arrays. Sonogashira cross-coupling conditions are utilized to attach various porphyrins and boron dipyrromethenes (BODIPYs) to ...

Transcriptional regulation of tetrapyrrole biosynthetic genes explains abscisic acid-induced heme accumulation in the unicellular red alga Cyanidioschyzon merolae

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Abscisic acid (ABA), a pivotal phytohormone that is synthesized in response to abiotic stresses and other environmental changes, induces various physiological responses. Heme, in its unbound form, has a positive signaling role in cell-cycle initiation in

Nomenclature of tetrapyrroles [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1987
In the revised recommendations two new trivial names (isobacteriochlorin and sirohydrochlorin) are defined. Isobacteriochlorin is 2,3,7,8‐tetrahydroporphyrin and is isomeric with bacteriochlorin. An example of an isobacteriochlorin is sirohydrochlorin, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of corrinoids. The names of linear tetrapyrroles are amended. The

Genetic Mapping of a Light-Dependent Lesion Mimic Mutant Reveals the Function of Coproporphyrinogen III Oxidase Homolog in Soybean

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Lesion mimic mutants provide ideal genetic materials for elucidating the molecular mechanism of cell death and disease resistance. Here, we isolated a Glycine max lesion mimic mutant 2-1 (Gmlmm2-1), which displayed a light-dependent cell death phenotype.
