On the importance of π-π interactions in the structural stability of phycocyanins [PDF]
Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2023 The influences of π-π interactions in phycocyanin proteins and their environmental preferences were analyzed. The observations indicate that the majority of the aromatic residues in phycocyanin proteins are involved in π-π interactions.
