The ionic and protonation states of flavin control the activation and recovery of Drosophila cryptochrome
Abstract Drosophila cryptochrome (dCry) is a flavin-containing photoreceptor. The release of C-terminal tail (CTT) upon illumination is a crucial step for the light sensing of dCry. Here, we demonstrated that both anionic semiquinone (asq) and anionic hydroquinone (hq) triggered CTT release, while n...
