Cyanobacterial phycobilisomes. Phycocyanin assembly in the rod substructures of anabaena variabilis phycobilisomes.
Phycocyanin complexes with "linker" polypeptides (Lundell, D. J., Williams, R. C., and Glazer, A. N. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 3580-3592) of 27 and 32.5 kilodaltons have been isolated from dissociated Anabaena variabilis phycobilisomes. In 0.05 M phosphate at pH 7.0, these "trimeric" complexes have the molar composition (alpha beta)3 . 27,000 and (alpha beta)3 . 32,500, where alpha and beta ar...
متن کاملRod substructure in cyanobacterial phycobilisomes: phycoerythrin assembly in synechocystis 6701 phycobilisomes
Synechocystis 6701 phycobilisomes consist of a core of three cylindrical elements in an equilateral array from which extend in a fanlike manner six rods, each made up of three to four stacked disks. Previous studies (see Gingrich, J. C., L. K. Blaha, and A. N. Glazer, 1982. J. Cell Biol. 92:261-268) have shown that the rods consist of four disk-shaped complexes of biliproteins with "linker" pol...
متن کاملMolecular composition of cyanobacterial phycobilisomes.
Phycobilisomes isolated from eight different species of cyanobacteria contain in addition to the light-harvesting phycobiliproteins, a small number of colorless polypeptides with molecular weights higher than those of the chromopolypeptide subunits of the phycobiliproteins. In the phycobilisomes of the species examined, from four to nine colorless polypeptides were resolved by sodium dodecyl s...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of the terminal energy acceptor of cyanobacterial phycobilisomes.
Cyanobacteria harvest light energy through multimolecular structures, the phycobilisomes, regularly arrayed at the surface of the photosynthetic membranes. Phycobilisomes consist of a central core from which rods radiate. A large polypeptide (LCM, 75-120 kDa) is postulated to act both as terminal energy acceptor and as a linker polypeptide that stabilizes the phycobilisome architecture. We repo...
متن کاملRod substructure in cyanobacterial phycobilisomes: analysis of Synechocystis 6701 mutants low in phycoerythrin
Synechocystis 6701 phycobilisomes contain phycoerythrin, phycocyanin, and allophycocyanin in a molar ratio of approximately 2:2:1, and other polypeptides of 99-, 46-, 33.5-, 31.5-, 30.5-, and 27-kdaltons. Wild-type phycobilisomes consist of a core of three cylindrical elements in an equilateral array surrounded by a fanlike array of six rods each made up of 3-4 stacked disks. Twelve nitrosoguan...
