Toward a Mechanism for Biliprotein Lyases: Revisiting Nucleophilic Addition to Phycocyanobilin

Biliprotein lyases attach linear-tetrapyrrolic bilins covalently to apoproteins, which is a prerequisite for the assembly of phycobiliproteins into phycobilisomes, the light-harvesting complexes of cyanobacteria. On the basis of the addition of thiol and imidazole to phycocyanobilin, we propose a ge...
