Open PublicationPhotosynthetic properties of ?rpoZ. (A) Light-saturated photosynthetic activity of a 1 ml of culture (OD730 = 1) of CS (white bar) and ?rpoZ (black bar) in standard conditions. Each bar represents an average of three independent biological replicates, and the error bars denote SE. (B) Fluorescence at 77 K was measured using 440-nm light that excites Chl. The data were normalized by dividing with the height of the PSI emission peak at 723 nm. (C) Total proteins were isolated, separated with SDS-PAGE and the amounts of PSI reaction center protein PsaB, PSII core protein CP43 and the phycobilisome proteins allophycocyanin (APC) and phycocyanin (PC) were measured by western blotting. The protein contents of PsaB, CP43, ACP and PC were 99 ± 6%, 97 ± 7, 103 ± 7% and 99 ± 4, respectively, in ?rpoZ of that measured in CS.

Additional information: This product can be sold containing proclin if requested - Background
-
Background: Allophycocyanin is a protein of the light-harvesting phycobiliprotein family of red algae and cyanobacteria. It is an accessory pigment to chlorophyll A located in the core of the phycobilisome, and its strong spectral overlap with chlorophyll facilitates energy transfer for photosynthesis.
