This domain is found in AppA protein from Rhodobacter sphaeroides and similar sequences from alphaproteobacteria. AppA is a light -sensing antirepressor involved in oxygen and light control of photosynthesis-gene expression. This protein senses blue-light via its N-terminal sensor of blue-light using FAD (BLUF) domain (Pfam:PF04940) and oxygen via its SCHIC (sensor containing heme instead of cobalamin) domain. This entry represents the domain that locates in between them, which folds as a four helix bundle (4HB) and acts as a binding platform for the adjacent domains [1-2].
This domain is found at the C-terminal end of AppA protein from Rhodobacter sphaeroides and similar sequences from alphaproteobacteria. AppA is a light-sensing antirepressor involved in oxygen and light control of photosynthesis-gene expression. This ...
This domain is found at the C-terminal end of AppA protein from Rhodobacter sphaeroides and similar sequences from alphaproteobacteria. AppA is a light-sensing antirepressor involved in oxygen and light control of photosynthesis-gene expression. This protein senses blue-light via its N-terminal blue-light using FAD (BLUF) domain (Pfam:PF04940) and oxygen via its sensor containing heme instead of cobalamin (SCHIC) domain (this entry). This domain has a flavodoxin-like fold [1,2].
The BLUF domain has been shown to bind FAD in the AppA protein (Swiss:Q53119). AppA is involved in the repression of photosynthesis genes in response to blue-light.
