Our device construction is divided into 4 components :

1. Degradation system
2. Light detection system
3. Protein Tagging
4. Light controllable protease

Notebook

All animation were modeled in blender 2.54 beta. Blender is a open source program for 3D animation.
(http://www.blender.org/)
The two videos cover the assembly of the ClpXP system and the degradation of the tagged protein. It is important to note that protein proportions a molecular structure are not entirely respected in the animation. Also the change of the phytochrome B conformation from the Pf state into the Pfr state is symbolized by a change of color. However, the hexametric structure of ClpX and the heptametrical structure of ClpP were schematically shown. Pictures x and y give a better understanding between the molecular structure and the schematic animation. Picture x describes the modeled system in detail. Picture x describes the protein in detail.
