Pheophorbide a oxygenase (EC 1.14.15.17, pheide a monooxygenase, pheide a oxygenase, PAO) is an enzyme with systematic name pheophorbide-a,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (biladiene-forming).[1][2][3][4][5][6] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

Pheophorbide a + NADPH + H+ + O2 red chlorophyll catabolite + NADP+

Pheophorbide a oxygenase participates in chlorophyll degradation. Loss-of-function mutations in the gene can lead to a stay-green phenotype in plants.[7]
