| Research Abstract |
To elucidate activation mechanism retained in PAS domain family protein, two different Photoactive Yellow Protein (PYP) were investigated as model proteins. In the results, 1) N-terminal regions in both PYPs owned functionally important part in each PYP, 2) co-factor binding region was almost same each other but small differences affects the co-factors features, 3) C-terminal structural scaffold mainly decided each PYP propensities ,the other part in each sequence affected by coupling with the C-terminal region.
