The differential pattern of growth, absorption spectra of pigments and nutrient uptake was observed in tolerant strain.展开更多
In Gloeobacter violaceus PCC 7421, three possible lyase genes glr1191, glr1182 and gll1188 were selected by Blast sorting.

The coded proteins of these three genes were co-expressed with their substrate protein in E. coli, respectively, and some chromoproteins were obtained. The fluorescence spectra showed that high fluorescence intensity was observed in the three experimental groups that involved the lyase genes, but little fluorescence intensity was observed in negative control groups. The ratio of relative fluorescence intensity in the experimental group with glr1191 was 64.8%. The result of SDS-PAGE indicated that the molecular weights of the three chromoproteins were 22.0 10 3 , 23.6 10 3 and 22.1 10 3 , respectively. The result of zinc-induced fluorescence re- vealed that the phycobilin in the three chromoproteins was covalently coupled to their apo-proteins. The result also showed that the coded proteins of these three genes （CpeS1 , CpeT1 , CpeY ）could cata- lyze the covalent coupling of different phycobilins to their apo- proteins and formed active chromoproteins.展开更多
