Reversible Light Switching of Cell Signalling by Genetically Encoded Protein Dimerization

Georgianna, W. E., & Deiters, A. (2010, January 8). ChemBioChem.

By: W. Georgianna n & A. Deiters n

MeSH headings : Animals; Bacterial Proteins / chemistry; Bacterial Proteins / metabolism; Cell Membrane / chemistry; Cell Membrane / metabolism; Light; Luminescent Proteins / chemistry; Luminescent Proteins / metabolism; Mice; NIH 3T3 Cells; Phycobilins / chemistry; Phycocyanin / chemistry; Phytochrome B / chemistry; Phytochrome B / genetics; Phytochrome B / metabolism; Protein Multimerization; Protein Structure, Tertiary; Signal Transduction
topics (OpenAlex): Photochromic and Fluorescence Chemistry; Light effects on plants; Photoreceptor and optogenetics research
TL;DR: This work has shown that a light-switchable transcriptional activator was constructed from a protein–protein interaction module in the phytochrome signalling network of the plant Arabidopsis thaliana, which enables the application of light toward the genetically encoded, reversible photoregulation of a cellular event.
