Redshifting and Blueshifting of β82 Chromophores in the Phycocyanin Hexamer of <i>Porphyridium purpureum</i> Phycobilisomes Due to Linker Proteins
Phycobilisomes in cyanobacteria and red algae are large protein complexes that absorb light and transfer energy for use in photosynthesis. The light energy absorbed by chromophores binding to phycobiliproteins in the peripheral rods can be funneled to the core through chromophores at very high effic...
