Protein name
RecName: Full=Light-independent protochlorophyllide reductase subunit B;
Short=DPOR subunit B;
Short=LI-POR subunit B;
EC=1.18.-.-;

case not <OG:Chloroplast> and not <OC:Cyanobacteria>
Gene name bchB
end case


case <OG:Chloroplast> or <OC:Cyanobacteria>
Gene name chlB
end case

FUNCTION: Uses Mg-ATP and reduced ferredoxin to reduce ring D of protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) to form chlorophyllide a (Chlide). This reaction is light-independent (By similarity).

case not <OG:Chloroplast> and not <OC:Cyanobacteria>
PATHWAY: Porphyrin biosynthesis; bacteriochlorophyll biosynthesis (light-independent).
SUBUNIT: Protochlorophyllide reductase is thought to be composed of three subunits; BchL, BchN and BchB. Could form a heterotetramer of two BchB and two BchN subunits (By similarity).
end case


case <OC:Cyanobacteria>
PATHWAY: Porphyrin biosynthesis; chlorophyll biosynthesis (light-independent).
SUBUNIT: Protochlorophyllide reductase is thought to be composed of three subunits; ChlL, ChlN and ChlB. Could form a heterotetramer of two ChlB and two ChlN subunits (By similarity).
end case


case <OG:Chloroplast>
PATHWAY: Porphyrin biosynthesis; chlorophyll biosynthesis (light-independent).
SUBUNIT: Protochlorophyllide reductase is thought to be composed of three subunits; chlL, chlN and chlB. Could form a heterotetramer of two chlB and two chlN subunits (By similarity).
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Plastid, chloroplast.
end case

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ChlB/BchB/BchZ family.
