BioID Identification of Lamin-Associated Proteins.

abstract：:Molecular mechanisms of dark-to-light state transitions in flavoprotein photoreceptors have been the subject of intense investigation. Blue-light sensing flavoproteins fall into three general classes that share aspects of their activation processes: LOV domains, BLUF proteins, and cryptochromes. In all cases, light-in...
