phytochrome chromophore biosynthetic process |
ID (Ontology) |
GO:0048543 (Gene Ontology) |
| Definition |
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of the phytochrome chromophore. The phytochrome chromophore is a linear tetrapyrrolic prosthetic group covalently attached to the large soluble protein phytochrome. Light absorption by the phytochrome chromophore triggers photoconversion between two spectrally distinct forms of the photoreceptor: Pr, the red light absorbing form, and Pfr, the far red light absorbing form.[ PubMed:2909515 ] |
| Also Known As |
"phytochrome chromophore anabolism" ; "phytochrome chromophore biosynthesis" ; "phytochrome chromophore formation" (for all, see Synonyms field below) |
