Photosensing with LOV: Molecular Insights into the Shared Mechanism of Light-Regulated Kinase Signaling between Plant Phototropins and Bacterial Two-Component Systems
… serine/threonine kinase activity from plant phototropins, later comparing this with LOV domains light–regulated histidine kinases in marine bacteria. Though the plant and bacterial kinases have diverse protein folds and functions, they both share the common photosensing module. Using a …

Understanding and engineering photoresponses in Arabidopsis thaliana
… the blue light sensitive cryptochromes, phototropins and zeitlupe family and the UV-B receptor UVR8. The role of phototropins in the maintenance of circadian rhythms in the chloroplast has been recently identified, suggesting the potential for further involvement of phototropins in the …

Investigation of phototropin blue light receptor function and signalling in arabidopsis
… wavelengths of light while cryptochromes, phototropins and members of the ZTL/ADO family respond to blue and UV-A wavelengths of light. Phototropins are UV-A/blue-light receptor kinases found ubiquitously in plants from the unicellular green alga Chalmydomonas reinhardtii through bryophytes …

Structure-function analysis of phototropin receptor kinases
… red and far-red light, and the cryptochromes and phototropins, which are UV-A and blue light receptors. Additional photosensors, including the recently identified ZEITLUPE/ADAGIO family, have roles in modulating the action of these main components. Plants can also respond to UV-B and green light, …

Application of All-Atom and Coarse-Grained Molecular Dynamics Simulations to Long Timescale Structural Transitions of Proteins
… of the mechanism of light detection by plant phototropins, the folding process of the WW domain and villin headpiece, the assembly and stability of a variety of viral capsids, the assembly and disassembly of high density lipoprotein particles, and the rotation of the bacterial flagellum. In …

Analysis of post-translational modifications of the blue light photoreceptor, phot1, by the CRL3NPH3 ubiquitin ligase complex
… including the primary photoreceptors, phototropins 1 and 2 (phot1 and phot2), and a BTB protein, NPH3. Recent studies in our laboratory have shown that NPH3, a phot1 interacting protein, can also interact with Cullin 3 (Cul3) as a substrate adapter in a Cul3-based E3 ubiquitin ligase …

Structural Basis of Signal Transduction within Environmental Sensing PAS Regulated Ser/Thr Kinases
… diseases (e.g., diabetes, obesity), while phototropins are important for plant physiology (e.g., phototropism, chloroplast relocation) in response to blue light. Studying the mechanism of signal transduction from the sensory PAS/LOV domains to the kinase domains of these proteins is …
