Understanding photoisomerization dynamics in cyanobacteriochromes is important to the development of optical agents in near-infrared biological imaging and optogenetics. Here, by integrating femtosecond spectroscopy and site-directed mutagenesis, we investigate the photoinduced Pr-state isomerization dynamics and mechanism of a unique red/green cyanobacteriochrome from <i>Leptolyngbya</i> sp. JSC-1. We observed multiphasic dynamics in the Pr state, a widespread phenomenon for photoreceptors in t ...[more]
