Protein
Phycobilisome 32.1 kDa linker polypeptide, phycocyanin-associated, rod 2
Organism
Synechocystis sp. (strain PCC 6803 / Kazusa)
Function
Rod linker protein, associated with phycocyanin. Linker polypeptides determine the state of aggregation and the location of the disk-shaped phycobiliprotein units within the phycobilisome and modulate their spectroscopic properties in order to mediate a directed and optimal energy transfer.
Similarity
Belongs to the phycobilisome linker protein family.
