Abstract
The (bacterio)chlorophyll biosynthetic pathway is of profound importance to the biosphere. During the past 20 years, there have been major advances in the under standing of the genes involved in the pathway and, more recently, in the enzymes that they encode. Chlorophyll biosynthesis can be considered to start with protoporphyrin IX, which lies at the branchpoint with haem synthesis. Therefore,
