The following phycobiliproteins and complexes of the allophycocyanin core were isolated from phycobilisomes of the thermophilic cyanobacterium Mastigocladus laminosus: alpha AP, beta AP, (alpha AP beta AP), (alpha AP beta AP)3, (alpha AP beta AP)3L8.9C, (alpha APB alpha AP2 beta AP3)L8.9C. The six proteins and complexes were characterised spectroscopically with respect to absorption, oscillator strength, extinction coefficient, fluorescence emission, relative quantum yield, fluorescence emission polarisation and fluorescence excitation polarisation. The interpretation of the spectral data was based on the three-dimensional structure model of (alpha PC beta PC)3 (Schirmer et al. (1985) J. Mol. Biol. 184, 257-277), which is related to the allophycocyanin trimer. The absorption and CD spectra of the complexes (alpha AP beta AP)3, (alpha AP beta AP)3L8.9C and (alpha APB alpha AP2 beta AP3)L8.9C could be deconvoluted into the spectra of the phycobiliprotein subunits. The assumptions made for the deconvolution could be checked by the synthesis of the spectra of (alpha APB beta AP)3. The synthesised spectra are in good agreement with the corresponding measured spectra published by other authors. Considering the deconvoluted spectra the following influences on the chromophores could be ascribed to L8.9C: L8.9C neither influences the alpha AP nor the alpha APB chromophores. L8.9C shifts the absorption maximum of the beta AP chromophore to longer wavelength than the absorption maximum of the alpha AP chromophore in trimeric complexes. L8.9C increases the oszillator strength of the beta AP chromophores to about the value of the alpha AP chromophores in trimeric complexes. L8.9C turns the beta AP chromophores from sensitizing into weak fluorescing chromophores. By means of the hydropathy plot and the predicted secondary structure, a postulated three-fold symmetry in the tertiary structure of L8.9C could be confirmed.
