Sysname
chlorophyllide-a:oxygen 71-oxidoreductase
Reaction(IUBMB)
chlorophyllide a + 2 O2 + 2 NADPH + 2 H+ = chlorophyllide b + 3 H2O +  NADP+ (overall reaction) [RN:R10080];
(1a) chlorophyllide a + O2 + NADPH + H+ = 71-hydroxychlorophyllide a + H2O + NADP+ [RN:R08203];
(1b) 71-hydroxychlorophyllide a + O2 + NADPH + H+ = chlorophyllide b + 2 H2O + NADP+ [RN:R08204]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
chlorophyllide a [CPD:C02139];
O2 [CPD:C00007];
NADPH [CPD:C00005];
H+ [CPD:C00080];

Product
chlorophyllide b [CPD:C16541];
H2O [CPD:C00001];
NADP+ [CPD:C00006];
71-hydroxychlorophyllide a
Comment
Chlorophyll b is required for the assembly of stable light-harvesting complexes (LHCs) in the chloroplast of green algae, cyanobacteria and plants [2,3]. Contains a mononuclear iron centre [3]. The enzyme catalyses two successive hydroxylations at the 7-methyl group of chlorophyllide a. The second step yields the aldehyde hydrate, which loses H2O spontaneously to form chlorophyllide b [2]. Chlorophyll a and protochlorophyllide a are not substrates [2].
