For what brown algal photoresponse is Aureochrome functioning as the receptor?

尽管我们发现的蓝光（BL）受体AUREO-CHROME调节Vaucheria中的光形态建成，但在生物学和工业上比其他藻类重要得多的褐藻中，对AUREO-CHROME的功能一无所知。我选择了盐翅藻，因为我考察了容易培养的小型褐藻种类，并且它们的组织结构最简单。培养H.在长日照条件下，用单色蓝色或红色LED灯观察congesta，我发现只有BL才能允许congesta生长，而红光则不行。

Although the blue light (BL)receptor, AUREOCHROME we dis-covered regulates photomorphogenesis in Vaucheria, in brown algae, which are biologically and industrially far more important than others, nothing is known about AUREO-CHROME's function. I chose Halopteris after surveying small brown algal species easily cultivable and having simplest organization. Culturing H. congesta in a long-day condi-tion with monochromatic blue-or red LED lamps, I found that only BL permits the alga's growth but not the red light.
