Claim 6mechanismsupports2011Source 3DOIPubMed

Phototropin light-dependent action is based on reversible formation of a covalent bond between an FMN cofactor and a conserved cysteine in LOV domains.

Quoted textsource-backed
The phototropins are blue-light receptors that base their light-dependent action on the reversible formation of a covalent bond between a flavin mononucleotide (FMN) cofactor and a conserved cysteine in light, oxygen or voltage (LOV) domains.
