Abstrakt: Tolypothrix PCC 7601 and Fremyella diplosiphon UTEX B590 can produce two alternative phycobilisome (PBS) rods. PE-PBSs with one phycocyanin (PC) disk and multiple phycoerythrin (PE) disks are found in cells grown under green light (GL). PC-PBSs with only PC disks are obtained from cells grown under red light (RL). In this manuscript, we show the localization of the linker proteins and ferredoxin-NADP(+) oxidoreductase (FNR) in the PC-PBS and of PE-PBS rods using visible spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. PE-PBSs with different [PE]/[PC] ratios and PC-PBSs with different [PC]/[AP] (AP, allophycocyanin) ratios were isolated. CpeC was the primary rod linker protein found in the PBSs with a [PE]/[PC] ratio of 1.1, which indicates that this is the rod linker at the interphase PC-PE. CpeC and CpeD were identified in the PBSs with a [PE]/[PC] ratio of 1.6, which indicates that CpcD is the linker between the first and the second PE hexamers. Finally, CpeC, CpeD, and CpeE were found in the PBSs with a [PE]/[PC] ratio of 2.9, indicating the position of CpeE between the second and third PE moieties. CpcI2 was identified in the two PC-PBSs obtained from cells grown under RL, which indicates that CpcI2 is the linker between the first and second PC hexamers. CpcH2 was identified only in the PC-PBSs from Tolypothrix with a high [PC]/[AP] ratio of 1.92, which indicates that CpcH2 is the linker between the second and third PC hexamers. The PC-PBSs contained the rod cap protein L(R)(10) (CpcD), but this protein was absent in the PE-PBSs. PE-PBSs (lacking L(R)(10)) incorporated exogenous rFNR in a stoichiometry of up to five FNRs per PBS. A maximum of two FNRs per PBS were found in PC-PBSs (with L(R)(10)). These observations support the hypothesis that FNR binds at the distal ends of the PBS rods in the vacant site of CpcD L(R)(10). Finally, the molecular mass of the core membrane linker (L(CM)) was determined to be 102 kDa from a mass spectrometry analysis.
