Key message The cucumber chlorophyll-deficient golden leaf mutation is due to a single
nucleotide substitution in the CsChlI gene for magnesium chelatase I subunit which plays …

Magnesium chelatase (MgCh) catalyzes the insertion of magnesium into protoporphyrin IX,
a vital step in chlorophyll (Chl) biogenesis. The enzyme consists of 3 subunits, MgCh I …

The first step of chlorophyll biosynthesis is catalyzed by a Mg-chelatase composed of the
subunits CHLI, CHLD and CHLH. Mg-chelatase requires ATP hydrolysis that can be …

Photosynthetic organisms exhibit a green color due to the accumulation of chlorophyll
pigments in chloroplasts. Mg-protoporphyrin IX chelatase (Mg-chelatase) comprises three …

Magnesium (Mg) chelatase is a heterotrimeric enzyme complex that catalyzes a key
regulatory and enzymatic reaction in chlorophyll biosynthesis, the insertion of Mg2+ into …

The I subunit of magnesium-chelatase (CHLI) is encoded by two genes in Arabidopsis
(Arabidopsis thaliana), CHLI1 and CHLI2. Conflicting results have been reported concerning …

As a rate-limiting enzyme for chlorophyll biosynthesis, Mg-chelatase is a promising target for
improving photosynthetic efficiency. It consists of CHLH, CHLD, and CHLI subunits. In pea …

The soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] chlorophyll-deficient line MinnGold is a spontaneous
mutant characterized by yellow foliage. Map-based cloning and transgenic complementation …

Proper chloroplast development and chlorophyll biosynthesis are essential for the
photoautotrophic plants. The insertion of magnesium (Mg 2+) into protoporphyrin IX (Proto) …

Chlorophyll biosynthesis is initiated by magnesium chelatase, an enzyme composed of
three proteins, which catalyzes the insertion of Mg 2+ into protoporphyrin IX to produce Mg …
