Reversible molecular motional switch based on circular photoactive protein oligomers exhibits unexpected photo-induced contraction

Summary: Molecular switches alterable between two stable states by environmental stimuli, such as light and temperature, offer the potential for controlling biological functions. Here, we report a circular photoswitchable protein complex made of multiple protein molecules that can rapidly and revers...
