Comparative Studies on Structural Characteristics of Cphycocyanin From Marine Red and Blue-Green Algae

C-phycocyanin (C-PC)is one of the phycobiliproteins which exist in phycobilisomes (PBS) attached to the outer surface of photosythetic lamellae of the red and blue-green algae. To date, the blue-green alga C-PC has been studied extensively, but most efforts focus on C-PC from blue-green algae, reports on the structures and properties of C-PC from ma-
