Abstract excerpt
Long-wavelength allophycocyanin (APC) subunits in cyanobacteria (APCD, APCE, and APCF) are required for phycobilisome (PBS) assembly, stability, and energy transfer to photosystems. Here we studied fluorescence properties of PBS in vivo, using Synechocystis PCC 6803 mutant cells deficient in both photosystems and/or long-wavelength APC subunits. At room temperature, an absence of APCD and APCF subunits resulted...
