Chlorophyllide-a oxygenase (EC 1.14.13.122), chlorophyllide a oxygenase, chlorophyll-b synthase, CAO) is an enzyme with systematic name chlorophyllide-a:oxygen 7-oxidoreductase.[1][2][3][4] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reactions
- (1) chlorophyllide a + O2 + NADPH + H+ [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] 7-hydroxychlorophyllide a + H2O + NADP+
- (2) 7-hydroxychlorophyllide a + O2 + NADPH + H+ [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] chlorophyllide b + 2 H2O + NADP+
Chlorophyllide a, (R=H) is converted to chlorophyllide b, in which the methyl group show in the green box is oxidised to a formyl group.
This enzyme contains a mononuclear iron centre and is part of the biosynthetic pathway to chlorophylls.[5][6]
