摘要

Allophycocyanin (APC) is a primary photoreceptor, usually composed of alpha- and beta-polypeptide subunits. Herein, we report the occurrence of a functionally stable single peptide APC alpha-subunit in cyanobacterium Nostoc sp. R76DM. APC was purified successfully by ammonium sulfate fractionation. A series of biochemical characterizations like SDS-PAGE, native-PAGE, UV-visible spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy and circular dichroism were performed to ensure the purity, integrity and functionality of the purified APC. Matrix-assisted laser-desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) analysis of intact PBP revealed a similar to 16.4 kDa protein. The MS/MS spectrum of five major peptides 1051, 1431, 936, 2291 and 2163 Da of trypsin digested purified PBP, followed by amino acid sequences of these peptides, shows a high degree (100%) of sequence similarities with that of the APC alpha-subunit (accession no. P16570, UniProtKB). The absorption as well as the fluorescence spectra of a single peptide APC alpha-subunit was shifted from normal absorption at 652 nm to 613 nm, and fluorescence at 663 nm to 645 nm. Urea-induced denaturation based Gibbs-free energy (Delta G(D)degrees) calculations suggested that the folding and structural stability of the APC alpha-subunit is almost similar to that of the standard APC (alpha beta) heterodimer from Lyngbya sp. Moreover, due to its conserved structural and functional integrity, the APC alpha-subunit may be widely used as a relatively low molecular weight fluorescent tag for fluorescence detection techniques.
