Description
This Phytochrome B is sensitive to red light and far red light. Upon being struck by red light it changes conformation and can bind to its interacting factor PIF3. This complex then translocates to the nucleus and induces changes in transcription. In plants this protein is involved in de-etiolation of seedlings.
Notes
This is not the complete PhyB sequence, it is just the N terminus (the portion needed to function while minimizing background), residues 1-621.
