Structural Features of Bacteriophytochromes. Photoactivated Proteins studied by Serial Femtosecond Crystallography
(2018-03-22)
The key to life on earth is sunlight, which reaches the planet as an energy source.
Nature has evolved different types of photoreceptor proteins to detect optimal light
conditions for biochemical processes. A type of red ...
Terahertz radiation as a pump and probe for studying low frequency vibrations in proteins
(2015-09-18)
Many functionally important structural changes in proteins proceed along the direction of their lowest frequency vibrations. These vibrations correspond to picosecond collective dynamics. Establishing the fundamental ...
Signal Transduction in Photoreceptor Proteins
(2017-10-26)
The ability to sense and react to different light conditions is of great importance for many organisms on the face of the earth. Specialized proteins known as photoreceptor proteins provide bacteria, plants and animals ...
Detecting and Identifying Solution-structural Change in Photoactive Proteins
(2015-11-27)
Conformational dynamics allow proteins to fulfil their biological roles, yet the understanding of these molecular machines is largely limited to structural snapshots. Time-resolved X-ray scattering provides a possible way ...
Structural Dynamics of Rhodopsins using Time-Resolved X-ray Solution Scattering
(2022-05-11)
Light is one of the most important sources of energy and environmental signals, and many organisms adapt in response to the presence of light. This is made possible through specialised proteins called photoreceptors. ...
Computational tools for the analysis of time-resolved serial X-ray crystallography data.
(2024-11-22)
Many transmembrane proteins play an essential role by facilitating energy transduction in various biological systems. Whether powered by light, as in bacteriorhodopsin or photosynthetic reaction centres, or by oxygen ...
