Abstract
The bacteriochlorophyll-d producing strain of bacterial Chlorobium forma thiosulfatophilum (NCIB Strain 8327) alters its chromophore by modification of its 4- and 5-substituents using methylations with S-adenosylmethionine; with time, the strain produces bacteriochlorophyll-c by performing macrocyclic rather than side chain methylation.
