Chromophore Deprotonation State Alters the Optical Properties of Blue Chromoprotein.
Chromoproteins (CPs) have unique colors and can be used in biological applications. In this work, a novel blue CP with a maximum absorption peak (λmax) at 608 nm was identified from the carpet anemone Stichodactyla gigantea (sgBP).
