Abstract excerpt
Bacteriophytochrome photoreceptors (BphPs) containing biliverdin (BV) have great potential for the development of genetically engineered near-infrared fluorescent proteins (NIR FPs). We investigated a photoactivatable fluorescent protein PAiRFP1, was engineered through directed molecular evolution. The coexistence of both red light absorbing (Pr) and far-red light absorbing (Pfr) states in dark is essential for...
