Abstract
A protein according to one embodiment of the present invention has a photoactivated adenylyl cyclase activity, and consists of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID No. 1 with 1-18 amino acid residues deleted from the C-terminus, or an amino acid sequence having 90% or more sequence identity therewith. According to the present invention, a novel photoactivated adenylyl cyclase having a higher photoactivation efficiency compared to a wild-type OaPAC protein can be provided.
Claims8
A protein having a photoactivated adenylyl cyclase activity, the protein consisting of an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID No. 1, wherein said protein comprising amino acid residues deleted from a C-terminus of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID No. 1, wherein the number of the amino acid residues deleted is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17 or 18, and wherein the resulting amino acid sequence having 90% or more sequence identity with the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID No. 1 with the same number of amino acid residues deleted from the C-terminus.
