Native mass spectrometry reveals the conformational diversity of the UVR8 photoreceptor [Biophysics and Computational Biology]

UVR8 is a plant photoreceptor protein that regulates photomorphogenic and protective responses to UV light. The inactive, homodimeric state absorbs UV-B light, resulting in dissociation into monomers, which are considered to be the active state and comprise a β-propeller core domain and intrinsically disordered N- and C-terminal tails. The C...
