Vibrational Spectroscopy of Phytochromes
Phytochromes are biological photoswitches that translate light into physiological functions. Spectroscopic techniques are essential tools for molecular research into these photoreceptors.

Daytime temperature is sensed by phytochrome B in Arabidopsis through a transcriptional activator HEMERA. [PDF]
Ambient temperature sensing by phytochrome B (PHYB) in Arabidopsis is thought to operate mainly at night. Here we show that PHYB plays an equally critical role in temperature sensing during the daytime.

Immunochemistry of Phytochrome [PDF]
Rabbit antibody was elicited against purified oat phytochrome polypeptides. Immunodiffusion and immunoelectrophoresis indicated the antibody elicited was predominantly a single precipitin system. No antigenic difference was detected between red-absorbing phytochrome and far red-absorbing phytochrome.

Phytochrome A Mediates the Disassembly of Processing Bodies in Far-Red Light
Phytochromes are red- and far-red light receptors that control the growth and development of plants, enabling them to respond adequately to changing light conditions. It has been shown that halted mRNAs stored in RNA granules called processing bodies are

Phytochrome Signaling Mechanisms [PDF]
Phytochromes are red (R)/far-red (FR) light photoreceptors that play fundamental roles in photoperception of the light environment and the subsequent adaptation of plant growth and development. There are five distinct phytochromes in Arabidopsis thaliana, designated phytochrome A (phyA) to phyE.

Plants are continuously exposed to unfavorable environmental conditions, such as heat stress, which negatively affect plant growth and productivity. There is evidence that phytochromes are involved in plant response to different abiotic stresses.

Phytochromes function as thermosensors in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Plants are responsive to temperature, and can distinguish differences of 1ºC. In Arabidopsis, warmer temperature accelerates flowering and increases elongation growth hermomorphogenesis).

Sensing the light environment in plants: photoreceptors and early signaling steps. [PDF]
Plants must constantly adapt to a changing light environment in order to optimize energy conversion through the process of photosynthesis and to limit photodamage.

Cytoplasmic Phytochrome Action [PDF]
Phytochrome photoperception is a common mechanism for the detection of red and far-red light in bacteria, cyanobacteria, fungi and plants. However, the responses following phytochrome activation appear to be quite diverse between species. Lower plants, such as mosses, show phytochrome-mediated directional responses, namely phototropism and ...
