Definition
English
:
Flavoproteins
that function as
circadian rhythm
signaling
proteins
in
ANIMALS
and as blue-light photoreceptors in
PLANTS
. They are structurally-related to
DNA
PHOTOLYASES and it is believed that both classes of
proteins
may have originated from an earlier protein that played a
role
in protecting primitive organisms from the cyclical exposure to UV
LIGHT.
