摘要

Phototropins, a class of light-activated protein kinases, are essential for several blue light responses in plants and algae,nincluding phototropism. These proteins contain two internal light, oxygen, and voltage sensitive (LOV) domains, which bind flavinnchromophores and undergo a reversible photochemical formation of a cysteinyl-flavin adduct as part of the light sensing process.nWhile the photodynamic properties of such photosensory domains are dictated by interactions between the chromophore andnsurrounding protein, more distant residues can play a significant role as well. Here we explore the role of the Phe434 residue in thenphotosensory response of the second LOV domain of Avena sativa phototropin 1 (AsLOV2), a model photochemical system fornthese LOV domains. Phe434 is more than 6 Å from the FMN chromophore in AsLOV2; nevertheless, an F434Y point mutation isnlikely to change several structural features of the chromophore binding site, as we demonstrate using molecular dynamicsnsimulations. Transient absorption signals spanning 15 decades in time were compared for wild-type AsLOV2 and the F434Ymutant,nshowing that the latter has significantly altered photodynamics, including (i) a faster intersystemcrossing leading to triplet formationnon a nanosecond time scale, (ii) biphasic formation of adduct-state kinetics on the microsecond time scale, and (iii) greatlynaccelerated ground-state recovery kinetics on a second time scale. We present mechanistic models that link these spectroscopicndifferences to changes in the configuration of the critical cysteine residue and in the chromophore’s accessibility to solvent andnoxygen according toMDtrajectories and purging experiments. Taken together, these results demonstrate the importance of residuesnoutside the chromophore-binding pocket in modulating LOV domain photodynamics.
