Chloroplast biogenesis 84: solubilization and partial purification of membrane-bound [4-vinyl]chlorophyllide a reductase from etiolated barley leaves.
Kolossov V.L., Rebeiz C.A.
[4-Vinyl] chlorophyllide a reductase (4VCR) is a key enzyme of the chlorophyll (Chl) biosynthetic pathway. It catalyzes the conversion of divinyl chlorophyllide (Chlide) a to monovinyl Chlide a by reduction of the vinyl group at position 4 of the macrocycle to ethyl. 4VCR is a membrane-bound enzym ... >> More
[4-Vinyl] chlorophyllide a reductase (4VCR) is a key enzyme of the chlorophyll (Chl) biosynthetic pathway. It catalyzes the conversion of divinyl chlorophyllide (Chlide) a to monovinyl Chlide a by reduction of the vinyl group at position 4 of the macrocycle to ethyl. 4VCR is a membrane-bound enzyme, embedded in etioplast and etiochloroplast membranes. A study of the regulation and properties of this enzyme is mandatory for a comprehensive understanding of the biosynthetic heterogeneity of Chl biosynthesis. Solubilization and partial purification of 4VCR are described for the first time. The enzyme was solubilized with 5 mM Chaps and was partially purified by chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel and Cibacron Blue 3GA-1000 agarose. An overall 20-fold purification was achieved. The partially purified enzyme was stable for several months at -80 degrees C. << Less

Chloroplast Biogenesis 60 : Conversion of Divinyl Protochlorophyllide to Monovinyl Protochlorophyllide in Green(ing) Barley, a Dark Monovinyl/Light Divinyl Plant Species.
Tripathy B.C., Rebeiz C.A.
In higher plants, most of the chlorophyll a is formed via the divinyl and monovinyl chlorophyll monocarboxylic biosynthetic routes. These two routes are strongly interconnected prior to protochlorophyllide formation in barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv Morex), a dark monovinyl-light divinyl plant spec ... >> More
In higher plants, most of the chlorophyll a is formed via the divinyl and monovinyl chlorophyll monocarboxylic biosynthetic routes. These two routes are strongly interconnected prior to protochlorophyllide formation in barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv Morex), a dark monovinyl-light divinyl plant species, but not in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L. cv Beit Alpha MR), a dark divinyl-light divinyl plant species (BC Tripathy, CA Rebeiz, 1986 J Biol Chem 261: 13556-13564). It is shown that in dark monovinyl-light divinyl plant species such as barley, the divinyl and monovinyl monocarboxylic routes become interconnected at the level of protochlorophyllide during transition from the divinyl to the monovinyl protochlorophyllide biosynthetic mode. In cucumber, a dark divinyl-light divinyl plant species, in which the monovinyl monocarboxylic biosynthetic route becomes preponderant only after an abnormally long sojourn in darkness, the conversion of divinyl to monovinyl protochlorophyllide does not take place on the barley time-scale of incubation. << Less

Chloroplast biogenesis 72: a [4-vinyl]chlorophyllide a reductase assay using divinyl chlorophyllide a as an exogenous substrate.
Parham R., Rebeiz C.A.
[4-Vinyl]Chlorophyllide alpha reductase (4VCR) catalyzes the conversion of 2,4-divinyl chlorophyllide alpha (DV Chlide alpha) to 2-vinyl,4-ethyl chlorophyllide alpha (MV Chlide alpha) via an NAPDH-dependent reaction. MV Childe alpha is the immediate precursor of monovinyl chlorophyll alpha in plan ... >> More
[4-Vinyl]Chlorophyllide alpha reductase (4VCR) catalyzes the conversion of 2,4-divinyl chlorophyllide alpha (DV Chlide alpha) to 2-vinyl,4-ethyl chlorophyllide alpha (MV Chlide alpha) via an NAPDH-dependent reaction. MV Childe alpha is the immediate precursor of monovinyl chlorophyll alpha in plants. In etiolated cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) cotyledons, 4VCR is a plastidic membrane-bound enzyme. Further research on this enzyme required the development of an assay that utilizes DV Childe alpha as an exogenous substrate. Such an assay is now described. It involves conversion of exogenous DV Chlide alpha to MV Chlide alpha at high rates by etioplast membranes of cucumber, corn (Zea mays L.), and barley (Hordum vulgare L.). 4VCR exhibits high activity between 30 and 40C and in the pH range of 6.3 to 7.0. Activity is quasilinear for the first 60 s of incubation. << Less

Some properties of [4-vinyl] chlorophyllide a reductase are described. This enzyme converts divinyl chlorophyllide a to monovinyl chlorophyllide a. The latter is the immediate precursor of monovinyl chlorophyll a, the main chlorophyll in green plants. [4-Vinyl] chlorophyllide a reductase plays an important role in daylight during the conversion of divinyl protochlorophyllide a to monovinyl chlorophyll a. [4-Vinyl] chlorophyllide a reductase was detected in isolated plastid membranes. Its activity is strictly dependent on the availability of NADPH. Other reductants such as NADH and GSH were ineffective. The enzyme appears to be specific for divinyl chlorophyllide a, and it does not reduce divinyl protochlorophyllide a to monovinyl protochlorophyllide a. The conversion of divinyl protochlorophyllide a to monovinyl protochlorophyllide a has been demonstrated in barley and cucumber etiochloroplasts and appears to be catalyzed by a [4-vinyl] protochlorophyllide a reductase [Tripathy, B.C., & Rebeiz, C.A. (1988) Plant Physiol. 87, 89-94]. On the basis of reductant requirements and substrate specificity, it is possible that two different 4-vinyl reductases may be involved in the reduction of divinyl protochlorophyllide a and divinyl chlorophyllide a to their respective 4-ethyl analogues. << Less
