Protein Domain : Geranylgeranyl reductase, plant/cyanobacteria IPR011774

Type  Family
Description  This entry represents the reductase which acts reduces the geranylgeranyl group to the phytyl group in the side chain of chlorophyll. It is unclear whether the enzyme has a preference for acting before or after the attachment of the side chain to chlorophyllide a by chlorophyll synthase. This clade is restricted to plants and cyanobacteria to separate it from the homologues which act in the biosynthesis of bacteriochlorophyll.
