The origin of the spectral shift from a red‐to a green‐absorbing form in a
cyanobacteriochrome, Slr1393g3, was identified by combined quantum …

Hydrostatic pressure can reversibly modulate protein-protein and protein-chromophore
interactions of C-phycocyanin (C-PC) from Spirulina platensis. Small-angle X-ray scattering …

Remarkable success in engineering novel efficient biomarkers based on fluorescent and
photoactive proteins provokes a question of whether computational modeling of their …

Photoisomerization of a protein bound chromophore is the basis of the light sensing and
signaling responses of many photoreceptors. Z-to-E photoisomerization of the Pr Cph1Δ2 …

The tetrapyrrole chromophore biliverdin IXα (BV) in the bacteriophytochrome from
Deinococcus radiodurans (DrBphP) is usually assumed to be fully protonated, but this …

Cyanobacteriochromes are compact and spectrally diverse photoreceptor proteins that are
promising candidates for biotechnological applications. Computational studies can …

We investigated the structural and spectroscopic properties of singly deprotonated biliverdin
anions in vacuo, using a combination of cryogenic ion spectroscopy, ion mobility …

Phytochromes are red-light sensing proteins, with important light-regulatory roles in different
organisms, which are capturing an increasing interest in bioimaging and optogenetics. Upon …

We present the first comprehensive multiscale computational investigation of Resonance
Raman, absorption and Circular Dichroism spectra of the resting state of the Deinococcus …

Using X-ray crystallography, continuum electrostatic calculations, and molecular dynamics
simulations, we have studied the structure, protonation behavior, and dynamics of the …
