Abstract excerpt
The gene encoding a phycocyanin-associated linker polypeptide of Mr 33,000 from the cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002 was found to be located adjacent and 3' to the genes encoding the alpha and beta subunits of phycocyanin. The identity of this gene, designated cpcC, was proven by matching the amino-terminal sequence of the authentic polypeptide with that predicted by the nucleotide sequence. A cpcC...
