YtvA of Bacillus subtilis consists of light, oxygen or voltage (LOV) domain and sulfate transporter and anti-sigma antagonist (STAS) domain, and was reported to act as a photoreceptor, sensing light signals through the LOV domain, like a plant blue light receptor, phototropin. At the same time, YtvA was reported to act as a positive regulator for stress responsive-gene expression regulated by sigma(B) factor. Here we indicate that, like phototropins, the conserved Cys residue among the LOV domains is required for light-sensing in YtvA in vitro, possibly by the photoadduct formation, and YtvA forms a homodimer via its LOV domain, independently to light signal. We also indicate that, when ytvA expression is in normal level, light itself does not trigger sigma(B) activation, but a photo-enhancement of sigma(B) activity, activated by salt stress, occurs only in the presence of ytvA. The conserved Cys residue in the LOV domain and the STAS domain seem to be responsible for light-sensing and signal-transmission to the sigma(B) regulatory network, respectively.
