Zusammenfassung

Within the joint project it is intended to design and synthesize artificial oligopyrroles with restricted conformational flexibility in order to study the biological function of bacterial phytchromes. The biological function of the protein seems to be largely dependent on the molecular conformation of the tetrapyrrole prosthetic group or substrate where the light-induced conformational dynamics of the prosthetic group induces conformational changes of the bacterial phytochrome protein. Although its biological function is as yet unresolved it can be assumed by analogy with the plant phy...
