The light-oxygen-voltage (LOV) domains of phototropins emerged as essential constituents
of light-sensitive proteins, hel** initiate blue light-triggered responses. Moreover, these …

Photoproteins, luminescent proteins or optoproteins are a kind of light-response protein
responsible for the conversion of light into biochemical energy that is used by some bacteria …

In nature as in biotechnology, light-oxygen-voltage photoreceptors perceive blue light to
elicit spatiotemporally defined cellular responses. Photon absorption drives thioadduct …

Flavin-binding fluorescent proteins are promising genetically encoded tags for microscopy.
However, spectral properties of their chromophores (riboflavin, flavin mononucleotide, and …

Photoactive biological systems modify the optical properties of their chromophores, known
as spectral tuning. Determining the molecular origin of spectral tuning is instrumental for …

Light–oxygen–voltage (LOV) domains are small photosensory flavoprotein modules that
allow the conversion of external stimuli (sunlight) into intracellular signals responsible for …

LOV domains are widespread photosensory modules that have also found applications in
fluorescence microscopy, optogenetics, and light-driven generation of reactive oxygen …

Flavins such as flavin mononucleotide or flavin adenine dinucleotide are bound by diverse
proteins, yet have very similar spectra when in the oxidized state. Recently, we developed …

Abstract Light-Oxygen-Voltage (LOV) domains are small photosensory flavoprotein modules
that allow converting external stimuli (sunlight) into intracellular signals responsible for …

Abstract Light-oxygen-voltage (LOV) domains are common photosensory modules that
found many applications in fluorescence microscopy and optogenetics. Here, we show that …
