Abstract Phycobilisomes are light-harvesting antenna complexes of cyanobacteria and red algae that are comprised of chromoproteins called phycobiliproteins. PBS core structures are made up of allophycocyanin subunits. Halomicronema hongdechloris (H. hongdechloris) is one of the cyanobacteria that produce chlorophyll f (Chl f) under far-red light and is regulated by the Far-Red Light Photoacclimation gene cluster. There are five genes encoding APC in this specific gene cluster, and they are responsible for assembling the red-shifted PBS in H. hongdechloris grown under far-red light. In this study, the five apc genes located in the FaRLiP gene cluster were heterologously expressed in an Escherichia coli reconstitution system. The canonical APC-encoding genes were also constructed in the same system for comparison. Additionally, five annotated phycobiliprotein lyase-encoding genes (cpcS) from the H. hongdechloris genome were phylogenetically classified and experimentally tested for their catalytic properties including their contribution to the shifted absorption of PBS. Through analysis of recombinant proteins, we determined that the heterodimer of CpcS-I and CpcU are able to ligate a chromophore to the APC-α/APC-β subunits. We discuss some hypotheses towards understanding the roles of the specialised APC and contributions of PBP lyases.
