CC   -!- FUNCTION: Light-harvesting photosynthetic bile pigment-protein from the
CC       phycobiliprotein complex. Allophycocyanin has a maximum absorption at
CC       approximately 650 nanometers.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Component of the phycobilisome. Heterodimer of an alpha and a
CC       beta chain (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cellular thylakoid membrane {ECO:0000250};
CC       Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000250}; Cytoplasmic side
CC       {ECO:0000250}. Note=Forms the core of the phycobilisome. {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- PTM: Contains one covalently linked bilin chromophore. {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the phycobiliprotein family. {ECO:0000305}.
