• Abstract:

  This entry represents proteins with a globin-like fold consisting of six helices in a partly opened, folded leaf topology, as well as the truncated globins that lack the initial helix. This includes both the globins themselves, and the phycocyanin-like phycobilisome proteins (phycocyanin, allophycocyanin, phycoerythrin and phycoerythrocyanin). Phycobilisome proteins are oligomers of two different types of globin-like subunits that contain two extra helices at the N-terminus, and which are use to bind a bilin chromophore. They occur in red algae and cyanobacteria, where they are used for light-harvesting [10358042].

  More information about these proteins can be found at Protein of the Month: Haemoglobin.
