Outline of Final Research Achievements |
LitR family serves as a transcriptional regulator with photosensor function in a diverged non-phototrophic bacteria. We determined a three dimensional structure of the photosensor domain of Class I LitR. We also demonstrated the the biochemical properties of Class II LitR serving as a light-dependent repressor. We also revealed that TetR and MerR type regulator are involved in the light-dependent regulation in non-phototrophic bacteria. Our studies showed the novel molecular mechanism of photo-sensing mechanisms and the diversity in non-phototrophic bacteria.
