Applications of BBa_K1587002

pcyA is used to catalyse the formation of phycocyanobilin (PCB), a chromophore of the phytochrome family of photoreceptors, photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes required for circadian clock. It is usually used in association with ho1 that catalyses the formation of biliverdin (BV) IXα via heme.
