“…Additionally, the colourful and fluorescent properties of phycobiliproteins can be modulated by metal ions, making them highly attractive as heavy metal sensors and heavy metal scavengers. Although the overall quenching ability metal ions have on phycobiliproteins is known, the mechanism of heavy metal binding to phycobiliproteins is not fully understood, limiting their widespread quantitative applications. …”
