An unexpectedly branched biosynthetic pathway for bacteriochlorophyll b capable of absorbing near-infrared light
Chlorophyllous pigments are essential for photosynthesis. Bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) b has the characteristic C8-ethylidene group and therefore is the sole naturally occurring pigment having an… Expand
