General Information
Term light-dependent chlorophyll biosynthetic process ID (Ontology) GO:0036067 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of chlorophyll, any compound of magnesium complexed in a porphyrin (tetrapyrrole) ring and which functions as a photosynthetic pigment, from less complex precursors, which occur in the presence of light.[ PubMed:12242396 ]
Also Known As "light dependent chlorophyll biosynthetic process" ; "light-dependent chlorophyll anabolism" ; "light-dependent chlorophyll biosynthesis" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
