✦ Synopsis
B-Phycoerythrin, the major phycobiliprotein of Bangiophyceae red algae, is composed of chromophorylated a-,/3-and "y-polypeptide chains. Two ",/-subunits with distinct molecular masses were chromatographically separated from B-phycoerythrin of the red alga Porphyridium cruentum. Both 7-polypeptides were spectrophotometrically identified as having the same composition of five chromophoric prosthetic groups: three phycourobilins and two phycoerythrobilins.
