Phycochromes are a subclass of phycobiliprotein that was initially recognised only as light sensory pigments in cyanobacteria. They are now deemed to constitute of all possible photoreversibly photochromic pigments, regardless of function. They are also found in red algae.
They are unique among the photosynthetic pigments in that they are bonded to certain water-soluble proteins, known as phycobiliproteins. Phycobiliproteins then pass the light energy to chlorophylls for photosynthesis .
(Phycobiliprotein overview information) The crystal structure of B-phycoerythrin from red algae Porphyridium cruentum (PDB ID: 3V57 [5] [6] [4]). The asymmetric unit (α β) 2 on the left and assumed biological molecule (α β) 3. It contains phycoerythrobilin, N-methyl asparagine and SO 4 2−. C-Phycocyanin (CPC) 232 620 nm / 642 nm 0,81 1.54 ...
Phycoerythrin (PE) is a red protein-pigment complex from the light-harvesting phycobiliprotein family, present in cyanobacteria, [1] red algae [2] and cryptophytes, [3] accessory to the main chlorophyll pigments responsible for photosynthesis.The red pigment is due to the prosthetic group, phycoerythrobilin, which gives phycoerythrin its red color.
Phycocyanin is a pigment-protein complex from the light-harvesting phycobiliprotein family, along with allophycocyanin and phycoerythrin. [1] It is an accessory pigment to chlorophyll. All phycobiliproteins are water-soluble, so they cannot exist within the membrane like carotenoids can.
Allophycocyanin ("other algal blue protein"; from Greek: ἄλλος (allos) meaning "other", φύκος (phykos) meaning “alga”, and κυανός (kyanos) meaning "blue") is a protein from the light-harvesting phycobiliprotein family, along with phycocyanin, phycoerythrin and phycoerythrocyanin. It is an accessory pigment to chlorophyll.
“Dark hair creates a frame that highlights the skin, while blonde or ash tones can soften the contrast and make the skin appear lighter,” she said, looking at Beyoncé’s pictures.
The regular ceruse white pigment is a basic lead carbonate of chemical formula 2 PbCO 3 ·Pb(OH) 2 while the mineral cerussite is a simple carbonate of lead (PbCO 3). A recipe from 1688 described the cosmetic as a mixture of water, vinegar, and lead. [5]
