Phycobiliprotein methylation. Effect of the gamma-N-methylasparagine residue on energy transfer in phycocyanin and the phycobilisome.

Journal of molecular biology - 5 Aug 1990

Swanson R V, Glazer A N

Abstract excerpt

The phycobiliproteins contain a conserved unique modified residue, gamma-N-methylasparagine at beta-72. This study examines the consequences of this methylation for the structure and function of phycocyanin and of phycobilisomes. An assay for the protein asparagine methylase activity was develope...
