Kinetic and biophysical approaches to the assembly of magnesium chelatase

Magnesium chelatase catalyses the first committed step in chlorophyll biosynthesis, the insertion of Mg2+ into protoporphyrin-IX yielding magnesium protoporphyrin-IX; This enzyme stands at a branch-point in chlorophyll and heme biosynthesis. Mg2+ insertion is energetically unfavourable and is couple...
