A Residue-Resolved Mechanism for Trapped-Twist Spectral Tuning in Cyanobacteriochromes

Abstract Cyanobacteriochromes (CBCRs) are bilin-binding photoreceptors that photoconvert between long-lived, thermally stable states; in the red/green subfamily, photoexcitation converts the red-absorbing Pr state to the green-absorbing Pg state with a large blue shift. Here we q...
