Abstract excerpt
The phycobilisomes and phycobiliproteins of Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002 wild-type strain PR6000 have been isolated and characterized. The hemidiscoidal phycobilisomes of strain PR6000 are composed of eleven different polypeptides: phycocyanin alpha and beta subunits; allophycocyanin alpha and beta subunits; alpha subunit of allophycocyanin B; the allophycocyanin beta-subunit-like polypeptide of Mr 18,000; the...
