The photo-N-degron functions as an N-terminal fusion and the B-LID domain functions as a C-terminal fusion to support light-dependent degradation in vivo.

Source-backed strengths

The source literature reports light-mediated degradation with fine temporal control in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Drosophila melanogaster. In developing Drosophila embryos, the photo-N-degron was effective in eliciting light-dependent loss of Cactus function as assessed by dorsal-ventral patterning phenotypes, and the related B-LID domain was also reported as effective in this context.

Source:

the blue light-inducible degradation (B-LID) domain, a light-activated degron that must be placed at the carboxy terminus of targeted proteins, is also effective in eliciting light-dependent loss of Cactus function, as determined by embryonic dorsal-ventral patterning phenotypes.

Source:

another previously described photosensitive degron (psd), which also must be located at the carboxy terminus of associated proteins, has little effect on Cactus-dependent phenotypes in response to illumination of developing embryos.
