Light-induced structural changes in a short light, oxygen, voltage (LOV) protein revealed by molecular dynamics simulations – implications for the understanding of LOV photoactivation.

The modularity of light, oxygen, voltage (LOV) blue-light photoreceptors has recently been exploited for the design of LOV-based optogenetic tools, which allow the light-dependent control of biological functions. For the understanding of LOV sensory function and hence the optimal design of LOV-based...
