ChlM
Mg protoporphyrin IX S-adenosyl methionine O-methyl transferase - Magnesium-protoporphyrin O-methyltransferase (ChlM) [PMID: 12828371; 12489983; 4436384]; ChloroP 1.1 predicts cp location

Usage and Biology

ChlM is responsible for the methylation of magnesium protoporphyrin IX. It encodes the enzyme Mg-protoporphyrin IX methyltransferase, to facilitate a highly regulated process in catalyzing magnesium chelatase [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17135235]. The main reaction catalyzed by ChlM is the transfer of the methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine to the carboxyl group of the C13 propionate side chain of magnesium protoporphyrin IX [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25077963]. This reaction is one of the most important steps in chlorophyll biosynthesis from protoporphyrin IX.

Extinction coefficients:

Extinction coefficients are in units of M-1 cm-1, at 280 nm measured in water.

Ext. coefficient 23045 Abs 0.1% (=1 g/l) 0.757, assuming all pairs of Cys residues form cystines


Ext. coefficient 22920 Abs 0.1% (=1 g/l) 0.753, assuming all Cys residues are reduced

Estimated half-life:

The N-terminal of the sequence considered is M (Met).

The estimated half-life is: 

                            30 hours (mammalian reticulocytes, in vitro).
                           >20 hours (yeast, in vivo).
                           >10 hours (Escherichia coli, in vivo).


Instability index:

The instability index (II) is computed to be 34.88 This classifies the protein as stable.


Aliphatic index: 85.43

Grand average of hydropathicity (GRAVY): -0.198
