phycobiliprotein
phycobiliprotein Any one of a class of pigments in the cyanobacteria, red algae, and photosynthetic cryptophytes that act as
accessory pigments in photosynthesis, being attached to the
thylakoid membranes. Each comprises a protein bound to a
phycobilin, a coloured tetrapyrrole prosthetic group (see
porphyrin). The main phycobiliproteins are
phycocyanin and
phycoerythrin. Within cells, phycobiliproteins form complex clusters called
phycobilisomes.
