Claim 1classificationsupports2015Source 1DOI

Bacterial light-sensory regulatory proteins discussed in this source include BLUF domain-containing proteins, LOV domain-containing proteins, and red/far-red light-sensitive phytochromes.

Claim 2mechanismsupports2015Source 1DOI

Chromophore phototransformation-induced structural changes in bacterial photosensory proteins trigger biochemical signaling cascades that control light-dependent physiological responses.

Claim 3mechanismsupports2015Source 1DOI

Light perception by bacterial photosensory chromoproteins is mediated by flavin chromophores or, in phytochromes, bilin chromophores bound to photosensory domains.
