目前已经发现蓝光可以促进流產布魯氏桿菌(附录一)增殖(附件),其它病源微生物对蓝光得响应有待进一步研究。
Phototropins, blue-light receptors in plants, are light-activated serine/threonine kinases with a flavoprotein LOV domain as their light-sensing module. In addition to the phototropins found in eukaryotes, gene-sequence analysis predicts that LOV domains should be present in prokaryotes and archaea. Swartz et al. (附录一) show that a subset of genes in prokaryotes encodes for proteins that function as light-activated LOV-histidine kinases. Light activation of the LOV domain leads to the formation of a flavin-cysteinyl adduct, which is the photoreceptor-signaling state that activates the kinase domain. Light-activated LOV-histidine kinases were found in two important plant and animal pathogens and in a marine photosynthetic bacterium and indicate that the LOV-histidine kinases are an important family of bacterial photosensory receptors.
