N- and C-terminal helices of oat LOV2 (404-546) are involved in light-induced signal transduction (room temperature (293K) dark structure of LOV2 (404-546))
This domain is found in many signalling proteins in which it functions as a sensor domain. It recognises FMN, Zn(II), FAD and riboflavin (MAtilla et. al., FEMS Microbiology Reviews, fuab043, 45, 2021, 1. https://doi.org/10.1093/femsre/fuab043).
