Investigation of phycobilisome degradation using top down proteomics in Synechococcus elongatus UTEX 2973


ABSTRACT: Top down mass spectrometry analysis of Synechococcus elongatus UTEX2973 cyanobacteria under nitrogen starvation over time course of 4 hours. A number of phycobiliproteins covalently linked to phycocyanobilin pigments were detected as intact forms. Some of them showed partial degradation of the protein backbones or the pigment structures. NblA, a small protein that is believed to play a key role in phycobilisome degradation was shown to be highly correlated to nitrogen starvation based on its remarkable change of protein abundance.

Phycobilisomes (PBSs) are large (3-5 megadalton) pigment-protein complexes in cyanobacteria that associate with thylakoid membranes and harvest light primarily for photosystem II. PBSs consist of highly ordered assemblies of pigmented phycobiliproteins (PBPs) and linker proteins that can account for up to half of the soluble protein in cells. Cyanobacteria adjust to changing environmental conditions by modulating PBS size and number. In response to nutrient depletion such as nitrogen (N) depriva  ...[more]
