Cph8(cph1-envZ)


The red light sensor (Cph8) is a fusion protein which is consisted of a phytochrome Cph1 and a histidine kinase domain, Envz-OmpR, that includes a response regulator.Cph1 is the first member of the plant photoreceptor family that has been identified in bacteria. The functional expression of a phytochrome domain(Cph1) in E. coli requires the biosynthesis of the respective bilin chromophore PCB. EnvZ-OmpR, a dimeric osmosensor, is a multidomain transmembrane protein and one of the best characterized two-component histidine kinases from E.coli.

With the biosynthesis of PCB, Cph1 serve as a red-light absorbing chromophore that is inactivated under red light and activated without red light. Upon changes of extracellular osmolarity, EnvZ specifically phosphorylates its cognate response regulator OmpR, which, in turn, regulates the PompC.

Cph8 can serve as a photoreceptor that regulates gene expression through PompC. Without red light, Cph1 is activated and it enables EnvZ-OmpR to autophosphorylate which in turn activates PompC. Under the exposure of red light, however, Cph1 is deactivated, inhibiting the autophosphorylation, thus turning off gene expression. Take the image beneath as an example, in the dark, the phosphorylated OmpR will turn on PompC to produce lacI protein.
