We report the room temperature crystal structure of the fast switching Met159Thr mutant of Dronpa at 2.0-A resolution in the bright on state. Structural differences with the wild type include shifted backbone positions of strand beta8 containing Thr159 as well as an altered A-C dimer interface involving strands beta7, beta8, beta10, and beta11. The Met159Thr mutation increases the cavity volume for the p-hydroxybenzylidene-imidazolinone chromophore as a result of both the side chain difference and the backbone positional differences.
