Phycobilisome and Phycobiliprotein Structures
TL;DR: Phycobilisomes serve as the primary light-harvesting antennae for Photosystem II in cyanobacteria and red algae and contain smaller amounts ‘linker polypeptides,’ most of which do not bear chromophores.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elucidation of the molecular structures of components of the phycobilisome: reconstructing a giant.
TL;DR: The structural information obtained from the components provides the basis for the modeled reconstruction of this giant complex called phycobilisome (PBS) and is suggested.

A Newly Uncovered Group of Distantly Related Lysine Methyltransferases Preferentially Interact with Molecular Chaperones to Regulate Their Activity
TL;DR: A new role for protein methylation as a regulatory pathway for molecular chaperones is uncovered and a novel regulatory mechanism for the chaperone VCP, whose deregulation is causative of degenerative neuromuscular diseases is defined.

TL;DR: The architecture of the heterodimer suggests that PE 545 may dock to an acceptor protein via a deep cleft and that energy may be transferred via this intermediary protein to the reaction center.

Amino acid analysis by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography: precolumn derivatization with phenylisothiocyanate.
TL;DR: All amino acids, including proline, are converted quantitatively to phenylthiocarbamyl compounds and these are stable enough to eliminate any need for in-line derivatization, providing results comparable in sensitivity and precision to those obtained by state-of-the-art ion-exchange analyzers.
