In enzymology, protochlorophyllide reductases (POR)[2][3] are enzymes that catalyze the conversion from protochlorophyllide to chlorophyllide a. They are oxidoreductases participating in the biosynthetic pathway to chlorophylls.[4][5]
There are two structurally unrelated proteins with this sort of activity, referred to as light-dependent (LPOR) and dark-operative (DPOR). The light- and NADPH-dependent reductase is part of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) superfamily and is found in plants and oxygenic photosynthetic bacteria,[6][7] while the ATP-dependent dark-operative version is a completely different protein, consisting of three subunits that exhibit significant sequence and quaternary structure similarity to the three subunits of nitrogenase.[8] This enzyme may be evolutionary older; due to its bound iron-sulfur clusters is highly sensitive to free oxygen and does not function if the atmospheric oxygen concentration exceeds about 3%.[9] It is possible that evolutionary pressure associated with the great oxidation event resulted in the development of the light-dependent system.
The light-dependent version (EC 1.3.1.33) uses NADPH:
- protochlorophyllide + NADPH + H+ chlorophyllide a + NADP+
While the light-independent or dark-operative version (EC 1.3.7.7) uses ATP and ferredoxin:[10][11][12]
- protochlorophyllide a + reduced ferredoxin + 2 ATP + 2 H2O = chlorophyllide a + oxidized ferredoxin + 2 ADP + 2 phosphate
