Researchers reveal structure and mechanism of chlorophyll synthase enzyme

An international team of biologists from Osnabrück University, the Center Algatech in Třeboň, and the University of Sheffield have, for the first time, deciphered the structure of the enzyme chlorophyll synthase. This enzyme is crucial in the production of chlorophyll, the pigment responsible for plants' green color and photosynthesis. Their findings, published in Nature Chemical Biology, provide new insights into the enzyme's mechanism.
