2-mercaptoethanol
2-mercaptoethanol or thiols like such as dithiothreitol are required for the isomerization reaction of the lyase: without, only the phycocyanobilin addition product is formed, but no [phycoerythrocyanin alpha-subunit]-Cys84-phycoviolobilin. Too much 2-mercaptoethanol will cause the loss of chromophore, in a reaction requiring oxygen. When Mg2+ is used as the activator, the optimal concentration of 2-mercaptoethanol is 5 mM, with Mn2+ it is 3 mM
dithiothreitol
