abstract = {In bacteria and fungi, various light, oxygen, voltage (LOV)
sensory systems that lack a fused effector domain but
instead contain only short N- and C-terminal extensions
flanking the LOV core exist. In the prokaryotic kingdom,
this so-called “short” LOV protein family represents the
third largest LOV photoreceptor family. This observation
prompted us to study their distribution and phylogeny as
well as their photochemical and structural properties in
more detail. We recently described the slow and fast
reverting “short” LOV proteins PpSB1-LOV and PpSB2-LOV
from Pseudomonas putida KT2440 whose adduct state lifetimes
varied by 3 orders of magnitude [Jentzsch, K., Wirtz, A.,
Circolone, F., Drepper, T., Losi, A., Gärtner, W., Jaeger,
K. E., and Krauss, U. (2009) Biochemistry 48,
10321–10333]. We now present evidence of the conservation
of similar fast and slow-reverting “short” LOV proteins
in different Pseudomonas species. Truncation studies
conducted with PpSB1-LOV and PpSB2-LOV suggested that the
short N- and C-terminal extensions outside of the LOV core
domain are essential for the structural integrity and
folding of the two proteins. While circular dichroism and
solution nuclear magnetic resonance experiments verify that
the two short C-terminal extensions of PpSB1-LOV and
PpSB2-LOV form independently folding helical structures in
solution, bioinformatic analyses imply the formation of
coiled coils of the respective structural elements in the
context of the dimeric full-length proteins. Given their
prototypic architecture, conserved in most more complex LOV
photoreceptor systems, “short” LOV proteins could
represent ideally suited building blocks for the design of
genetically encoded photoswitches (i.e., LOV-based
optogenetic tools).},
