Modeling

To do

- Model allosteric interactions between LOVTAP & TrpR
What will be done:
- Model of LOVTAP in dark phase
- Model of LOVTAP in light phase
- Characterize how the J-alpha helix changes
- Model sturctural changes that enhance the switch feature of LOVTAP e.g. in dark phase: really weak interaction between LOVTAP and the corresponding DNA sequence, in light phase: strong binding of LOVTAP on DNA.


To envisage


- Molecular mutationnal assay
