ID PHE1_RHDS2 Reviewed; 44 AA. AC P30942; DT 01-JUL-1993, integrated into UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot. DT 01-JUL-1993, sequence version 1. DT 22-FEB-2023, entry version 82. DE RecName: Full=Phycoerythrin alpha-1 chain; DE Flags: Fragment; GN Name=cpeA1; OS Rhodomonas sp. (strain CS 24) (Chroomonas sp. (strain CS24)). OC Eukaryota; Cryptophyceae; Pyrenomonadales; Pyrenomonadaceae; Rhodomonas. OX NCBI_TaxID=79257; RN [1] RP PROTEIN SEQUENCE. RX PubMed=2226853; DOI=10.1016/0014-5793(90)81082-y; RA Jenkins J., Hiller R.G., Speirs J., Godovac-Zimmermann J.; RT "A genomic clone encoding a cryptophyte phycoerythrin alpha-subunit. RT Evidence for three alpha-subunits and an N-terminal membrane transit RT sequence."; RL FEBS Lett. 273:191-194(1990). CC -!- FUNCTION: Light-harvesting photosynthetic tetrapyrrole chromophore- CC protein from the phycobiliprotein complex. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Heterotetramer of 2 different alpha chains and 2 identical CC beta chains. The subunit composition could comprise of any combination CC of 2 out of 4 different alpha units with an invariant beta unit (By CC similarity). {ECO:0000250}. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Plastid, chloroplast thylakoid membrane; CC Peripheral membrane protein; Lumenal side. CC -!- PTM: Contains one covalently linked 15,16-dihydrobiliverdin CC chromophore. {ECO:0000250}. CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The light-harvesting system in Cryptophytes contains CC phycobiliprotein complexes. Unusually they are composed of either CC phycoerythrin (CPE) or phycocyanin (CPC) but never allophycocyanin CC (APC), with only one type of biliprotein being present in any one CC species. Unlike cyanobacteria or red algae these proteins are not CC arranged into higher-order phycobilisome complexes, and they are found CC in the thylakoid lumen. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the phycoerythrin family. {ECO:0000305}.
