CcaS gene (constitutive expression)

CcaS gene with constitutive expression.

Ccas is a member of cyanobacteriochrome family of proteins. Phycocyanobillin (PCB) binds at a conserved cysteine domain of CcaS and activates signaling activity. CcaS, along with its response regulator CcaR, activates transcription of promoter pCpcG2. Activation shows max response with 535 nm wavelength green light and with 672 nm wavelength red light. When absorbing green light, CcaS autophosphorylates and then carries out phosphotransfer to CcaR. Phosphorylated CcaR (CcaR*) acts as a transcription factor for pCpcG2. This process can be reverted with absorption of red light.
