Chromophorylation of a novel cyanobacteriochrome GAF domain from Spirulina and its response to copper ions.

This study identified a novel PEB-binding cyanobacteriochrome-based fluorescent protein with the highest quantum yield reported to date and indicated its potential as a biosensor for the rapid detection of copper ions. PMID: 33203817 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
