LOV2 Domain

The LOV (Light-Oxygen-Voltage) domain is a photoreceptor that responds to blue light. In nature it was first found to be involved in the phototropism response in plants and has since been found to be present in fungi and bacteria also. It has been shown to be coupled to many domains, for example phosphodiesterase or kinases.

We are using it as a reporter due to its ability to function in anoxic conditions. This is particularly useful in biofilms and is a function that fluorescent proteins derived from GFP do not have.
