Photolyases (Phrs) are enzymes that utilize the blue/ultraviolet (UV-A) region of light for repairing UV-induced cyclopyramidine dimers. We studied Phr groups by bioinformatic analyses as well as active-site and structural modeling. Analysis of 238 amino acid sequences from 85 completely sequenced cyanobacterial genomes revealed five classes of Phrs, CPD Gr I, 6-4 Phrs/cryptochrome, Cry-DASH, Fe-S bacteria Phrs, and a group with fewer amino acids (276–385) in length. The distribution of Phr groups in cyanobacteria belonging to the order Synechococcales was found to be influenced by the habitats of the organisms. Class V Phrs are exclusively present in cyanobacteria. Unique motifs and binding sites were reported in groups II and III. The Fe-S protein binding site was only present in group V and the active site residues and putative CPD/6-4PP binding residues are charged amino acids present on the surface of the proteins. The majority of hydrophilic amino acid residues were present on the surface of the Phrs. Sequence analysis confirmed the diverse nature of Phrs, although sequence diversity did not affect the overall three-dimensional structure. Protein–ligand interaction analysis identified novel CPD/6-4PP binding sites on Phrs. This structural information of Phrs can be used for the preparation of efficient Phr-based formulations.
