General description
R-Phycoerythrin or R-PE is a fluorescent probe belonging to the group of phycobiliproteins obtained from macroalgae. R-Phycoerythrin (R-PE) is a protein acting as a photosynthetic accessory pigment in red algae (Rhodophyta). It is an oligomeric protein of 240 kDa, with 6 α (about 20 kDa), 6 β (about 20 kDa), and 1 γ (about 30 kDa) subunits. Phycobiliproteins are water-soluble light-harvesting proteins with a high fluorescent property.
Application
R-Phycoerythrin (R-PE) is useful in the laboratory as a fluorescence-based indicator for the presence of cyanobacteria and a variety of immunofluorescence applications. R-PE is a useful fluoroprobe in various electrophoretic procedures. R-Phycoerythrin (R-PE) proteins detect mercury ions in soil and groundwater samples. Phycoerythrin has been widely used in food, cosmetics, immunodiagnostics, and analytical reagents.
Analysis Note
The product is suspended in 150 mM sodium phosphate, 60% ammonium sulfate, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM sodium azide, pH 7.0 and must be dialyzed against conjugation buffer or PBS before conjugation.A566/A280 >4.6, A620/A566 <0.03, A566/A498 <1.5

Phycobilisomes, the light-harvesting antennas in cyanobacteria and red algae, consist of an allophycocyanin core that is attached to the membrane via a core-membrane linker, and rods comprised of phycocyanin and often also phycoerythrin or phycoerythrocyanin. Phycobiliproteins show excellent energy transfer

In marine Synechococcus there is evidence for the adaptive evolution of spectrally distinct forms of the major light harvesting pigment phycoerythrin (PE). Recent research has suggested that these spectral forms of PE have a different evolutionary history than the core

Even though superresolution microscopy indicates that size of plasma membrane rafts is <20 nm, those structures have never been observed. Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) is therefore still the most powerful optical method for characterization of such domains. In this letter
