Dynamic crystallography reveals early signaling events in ultraviolet photoreceptor UVR8

Professor RQ Zhang and Dr J Fan co-authored a paper in Nature Plants 2015

This paper, entitled "Dynamic crystallography reveals early signaling events in ultraviolet photoreceptor UVR8" reported how plants absorb UV light by a photoreceptor UVR8. Prof. RQ Zhang and Dr. Fan’s DFT computation together with experimental data reveal the mechanism of photoreaction and dimer dissociation of UVR8.
