Mechanism Branch
Layer 1
Mechanisms
Top-level concepts: biophysical action modes such as heterodimerization, photocleavage, or RNA binding.
Layer 2
Architectures
Arrangements that realize or deploy mechanisms, including switches, construct patterns, and delivery strategies.
Layer 3
Components
Low-level parts and sequence-defined elements used inside architectures, including protein domains and RNA elements.
Technique Branch
Layer 1
Approaches
High-level engineering practices such as computational design, directed evolution, sequence verification, and functional assay.
Layer 2
Methods
Concrete methods used to design, build, verify, or characterize engineered systems.

We engineered opto-CD28-REACT, a recombinant protein comprising an anti-CD28 single-chain variable fragment, GFP, and phytochrome-interacting factor 6 (PIF6). This construct binds CD28 and thereby attaches PIF6 to CD28. Upon red light (630 nm) illumination, PIF6 binds to PhyB tetramer-coated beads, triggering CD28 signaling that can be attenuated by far-red light (780 nm) in 2 min.
