15. Loci slr0473 and slr0474 were amplified by PCR with purified Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 genomic DNA, both individually and as an operon, with primers that allowed them to be cloned into the pASK75B expression vector (23). Expression of Strep-Tagged fusions of Cph1 and Rcp1 in E. coli strain DH5α was done according to the manufacturer's instructions (Biometra Inc.).

Maltose binding protein (MBP) fusions with Strep-Tagged wild type (WT) and D68A mutant of Rcp1, generated by site-specific mutagenesis (24), were obtained by subcloning into the Bam HI site of pMAL-c2, expressed in E. coli, and purified according to the vector manufacturer's instructions (New England BioLabs). Strep-Tagged Cph1 and N514 mutant (10, 12) were purified with a homemade streptavidin-Sepharose matrix (25).
