phycobiliprotein

As nouns the difference between terms and phycobiliprotein

is that terms is while phycobiliprotein is any of a class of water-soluble proteins, present in cyanobacteria and certain algae, that capture light energy which is then passed on to chlorophylls during photosynthesis; the most important constituents of the phycobilisomes.

As nouns the difference between phycobiliprotein and phycocyanin

is that phycobiliprotein is any of a class of water-soluble proteins, present in cyanobacteria and certain algae, that capture light energy which is then passed on to chlorophylls during photosynthesis; the most important constituents of the phycobilisomes while phycocyanin is (biochemistry) a pigment from the light-harvesting phycobiliprotein family, along with allophycocyanin and phycoerythrin, an accessory pigment to chlorophyll.

As nouns the difference between phycobiliprotein and phycoerythrocyanin

is that phycobiliprotein is any of a class of water-soluble proteins, present in cyanobacteria and certain algae, that capture light energy which is then passed on to chlorophylls during photosynthesis; the most important constituents of the phycobilisomes while phycoerythrocyanin is (protein) a phycobiliprotein involved in photosynthesis, notably in cyanobacteria and red algae.

As nouns the difference between phycobiliprotein and phycocyanobilin

is that phycobiliprotein is any of a class of water-soluble proteins, present in cyanobacteria and certain algae, that capture light energy which is then passed on to chlorophylls during photosynthesis; the most important constituents of the phycobilisomes while phycocyanobilin is a blue phycobilin present in the phycobiliproteins allophycocyanin and phycocyanin, of which it is the terminal acceptor of energy.

As nouns the difference between phycobiliprotein and phycoerythrobilin

is that phycobiliprotein is any of a class of water-soluble proteins, present in cyanobacteria and certain algae, that capture light energy which is then passed on to chlorophylls during photosynthesis; the most important constituents of the phycobilisomes while phycoerythrobilin is (biochemistry) a red phycobilin found in the phycobiliprotein phycoerythrin, of which it is the terminal acceptor of energy.

As nouns the difference between phycobilisome and phycobiliprotein

is that phycobilisome is a light-harvesting antenna in cyanobacteria, red algae and glaucophytes while phycobiliprotein is any of a class of water-soluble proteins, present in cyanobacteria and certain algae, that capture light energy which is then passed on to chlorophylls during photosynthesis; the most important constituents of the phycobilisomes.

As nouns the difference between constituent and phycobiliprotein

is that constituent is a part, or component of a whole while phycobiliprotein is any of a class of water-soluble proteins, present in cyanobacteria and certain algae, that capture light energy which is then passed on to chlorophylls during photosynthesis; the most important constituents of the phycobilisomes.

As an adjective constituent

is being a part, or component of a whole.

As nouns the difference between photosynthesis and phycobiliprotein

is that photosynthesis is (biology) the process by which plants and other photoautotrophs generate carbohydrates and oxygen from carbon dioxide, water, and light energy while phycobiliprotein is any of a class of water-soluble proteins, present in cyanobacteria and certain algae, that capture light energy which is then passed on to chlorophylls during photosynthesis; the most important constituents of the phycobilisomes.

As nouns the difference between chlorophyll and phycobiliprotein

is that chlorophyll is chlorophyll (green pigment) while phycobiliprotein is any of a class of water-soluble proteins, present in cyanobacteria and certain algae, that capture light energy which is then passed on to chlorophylls during photosynthesis; the most important constituents of the phycobilisomes.

As nouns the difference between algae and phycobiliprotein

is that algae is (alga) while phycobiliprotein is any of a class of water-soluble proteins, present in cyanobacteria and certain algae, that capture light energy which is then passed on to chlorophylls during photosynthesis; the most important constituents of the phycobilisomes.
