Bacteriochlorophylls (BChl) are photosynthetic pigments that occur in various phototrophic bacteria. They were discovered by C. B. van Niel in 1932. [1] . They are related to chlorophylls, which are the primary pigments in plants, algae, and cyanobacteria.

2021年2月27日 · Generally, bacteriochlorophyllides were responsible for the photosynthesis in bacteria. Seven types of bacteriochlorophyllides have been disclosed. Bacteriochlorophyllides a/b/g could be...

The chlorophylls are a structurally and functionally distinct group of macrocyclic tetrapyrrole pigments that may occur at the porphyrin, chlorin or bacteriochlorin oxidation levels. Biosynthetically, they are derived from protoporphyrin IX.

Bacteriochlorophylls are present in anaerobic group of bacteria. Structurally, they differ in the side group porphyrin macrocycle. All the members of this group have absorption maximum in IR region. However, the absorption spectrum of bChl depends upon its location in membranes.
