Abstract excerpt

Covalent attachment of phycocyanobilin (PCB) to the alpha-subunit of C-phycocyanin, CpcA, is catalysed by the heterodimeric PCB : CpcA lyase, CpcE/F [Fairchild CD, Zhao J, Zhou J, Colson SE, Bryant DA & Glazer AN (1992) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA89, 7017-7021]. CpcE and CpcF of the cyanobacterium, Mastigocladus laminosus PCC 7603, form a 1 : 1 complex. Lyase-mutants were constructed to probe functional domains. When...
