The phycobiliproteins of the blue-green algae Synechococcus sp. and Aphanocapsu sp. were characterized with respect to homogeneity, isoelectric point, and subunit composition. Each of the biliproteins consisted of two different noncovalently associated subunits, with molecular weights of about 20,000 and 16,000 for phycocyanin, 17,500 and 15,500 for allophycocyanin, and 22,000 and 20,000 for phycoerythrin. Covalently bound chromophore was associated with each subunit.
对蓝藻聚球藻属和隐球藻属的藻胆蛋白进行了关于均一性、等电点和亚基组成的表征。每种藻胆蛋白均由两个不同的非共价结合亚基组成,藻蓝蛋白的分子量约为20,000和16,000,别藻蓝蛋白的分子量为17,500和15,500,藻红蛋白的分子量为22,000和20,000。每个亚基都与共价结合的发色团相关联。
