The Phytochrome Interaction Factor 6 (PIF6) is derived from Arabidopsis thaliana.

Illumination with red light (660 nm wavelength) leads to binding of Phytochrome Interaction Factor 6 (PIF6) to Phytochrome B. The interaction can be abolished by illumination with far-red light (740 nm) wavelength.

A framework using the unique properties of PhyB and PIF6 was designed to enable the recruitment of different effector proteins to any desired gene locus. The system was designed to work as described: Fusion proteins linking dCas9 to PIF6 were designed, as well as fusion proteins linking the interaction partner of PIF6 – PhyB – to several effector molecules such as VP16 or KRAB.
