Quantitative proteome analysis of progressive phycobilisome mutant variants CB, CK, and PAL to understand systematic alterations in protein expression profiles.
In cyanobacteria and red algae, the structural basis dictating efficient excitation energy transfer from the phycobilisome (PBS) antenna complex to the reaction centers (RCs) remains unclear. PBS has several peripheral rods and a central core, which binds to the thylakoid membrane, allowing energy c...
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 prote...
