Chlorophyllide a reductase (EC 1.3.7.15), also known as COR, is an enzyme with systematic name bacteriochlorophyllide-a:ferredoxin 7,8-oxidoreductase.[1][2] It catalyses the following chemical reaction
This reduction, (with trans stereochemistry) of the sidechains in the pyrrole ring, gives the characteristic 18-electron aromatic system that distinguishes bacteriochlorophylls from chlorophylls, which retain the chlorin system of chlorophyllide a.[3] The enzyme uses ferredoxin and adenosine triphosphate as cofactors and gives adenosine diphosphate and phosphate (Pi) as byproducts.[4]
This enzyme is present in purple bacteria such as Rhodobacter capsulatus and Rhodobacter sphaeroides, and Pseudomonadota. It is a component of the biosynthetic pathway to bacteriochlorophylls.[5][6][7]
