“…S everal natural photoreceptors derived from plants, fungi and bacteria, such as the LOV2 domain of phototropin 1, phytochrome B, cryptochrome 2 (CRY2), FKF1, Vivid (VVD), UVR8 and EL222, have been used as photoswitches to construct the optogenetic tool known as a photoactivatable actuator [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] . These photoreceptor-based photoswitches proved that the methods used to control protein activities with light provide a powerful approach to perturbing cellular signalling processes, such as cell morphology [4][5][6] , signal transduction 5 and gene expression 2,3,[6][7][8][9][10] .…”
