Disease relevance of Phycoerythrobilin

 

High impact information on Phycoerythrobilin

 

Biological context of Phycoerythrobilin

  • Values for the rate of energy transfer k(HT) (0.47 ns(-1)) and the angle 2theta between the transition dipole moment directions (2theta = 45 +/- 5 degrees) were determined from an analysis of the concentration dependence of the anisotropy at five different PEB/Cph1 stoichiometries [10].
  • These open reading frames may encode a lyase specific for the attachment of phycoerythrobilin to alpha RPCII [11].
  • The deduced amino acid sequences were compared to class II phycoerythrin from Synechococcus sp. strain WH8020 and found to share 92% identity, yet the proteins differ in the bilin isomer (phycoerythrobilin versus phycourobilin) bound to two of the six chromophore attachment sites [12].

Associations of Phycoerythrobilin with other chemical compounds

 

Gene context of Phycoerythrobilin

  • The spectroscopic and chemical properties of these peptides were compared with those of P. cruentum B-phycoerythrin peptide alpha-1 PEB, Cys(PEB)-Tyr-Arg, in which the bilin is A-ring linked (Schoenleber, R. W., Leung, S.-L., Lundell, D. J., Glazer, A. N., and Rapoport, H. (1983) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 105, 4072-4076) [9].
  • In contrast, the phycoerythrobilin on peptide beta-3 is attached through two thioether linkages to cysteinyl residues 10 residues apart [18].
  • Structures and apoprotein linkages of phycoerythrobilin and phycocyanobilin [19].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Phycoerythrobilin

  • Secondary ion mass spectrometry showed the bilins in these peptides and in alpha-1 PEB to have the same mass [9].
  • Sequential titration of apo Cph1 with PEB alone to full occupancy did not affect the intensity decay but led to a substantial increase in depolarization [10].
  • Results indicate that fluorescent proteins formed by attachment of phycoerythrobilin to expressed apo-subunits of phycobiliproteins can be used as fluorescent probes for analysis of cells by microscopy and flow cytometry [13].
