Covalent structure of collagen: amino acid sequence of chick skin collagen alpha1(1)-CB6B.

abstract：:Aureochromes have recently been shown to act as blue-light-regulated transcription factors in the stramenopile alga Vaucheria frigida. They comprise a light-, oxygen-, or voltage-sensitive (LOV) domain as a sensory module with flavin mononucleotide (FMN) as a chromophore and a basic region leucine zipper (bZIP) domain...
