Phycocyanobilin biosynthesis in Galdieria sulphuraria requires isomerization of phycoerythrobilin synthesized by bilin reductases
{{output}}
Phycobiliproteins are essential components of the light-harvesting antennae in cyanobacteria and red algae, requiring covalently bound open-chain tetrapyrrole chromophores (bilins) for proper function. In the red alga Galdieria sulphuraria, the primary chromop... ...
