A light-induced microprotein triggers regulated intramembrane proteolysis to promote photo sensing in a pathogenic bacterium

2025-04-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Light, a ubiquitous environmental stimulus, shapes behavior and physiology across all domains of life. While photoreceptors are widespread in bacterial genomes, their functional roles and signal transduction mechanisms in non-photosynthetic bacteria remain understudied. Light represses biofilms and virulence factors through a bacteriophytochrome photoreceptor BphP and response regulator AlgB in...
