Phytochrome photoreceptors absorb far-red and near-infrared (NIR) light and regulate light
responses in plants, fungi, and bacteria. Their multidomain structure and autocatalytic …

Diatoms are the world's most diverse group of algae, comprising at least 100,000 species.
Contributing~ 20% of annual global carbon fixation, they underpin major aquatic food webs …

Plants use light as a source of both energy and information. Plant physiological responses to
light, and interactions between plants and animals (such as herbivory and pollination), have …

Optogenetic tools use colored light to rapidly control gene expression in space and time. We
designed a genetically encoded system that gives Escherichia coli the ability to distinguish …

The superfamily of phytochrome (Phy) photoreceptors regulates a wide array of light
responses in plants and microorganisms through their unique ability to reversibly switch …

Cyanobacteria are an evolutionarily and ecologically important group of prokaryotes. They
exist in diverse habitats, ranging from hot springs and deserts to glaciers and the open …

Phytochromes are red/far-red photoreceptors that play essential roles in diverse plant
morphogenetic and physiological responses to light. Despite their functional significance …

Genetically encoded optical tools have revolutionized modern biology by allowing detection
and control of biological processes with exceptional spatiotemporal precision and sensitivity …

The l-arabinose-responsive AraC and its cognate PBAD promoter underlie one of the most
often used chemically inducible prokaryotic gene expression systems in microbiology and …

Phytochromes are photochromic photoreceptors responsible for a myriad of red/far-red light-
dependent processes in plants and microorganisms. Interconversion is initially driven by …
