PDM1-4 is a Dronpa variant that possesses a slower off-switching rate than Dronpa and thus can effectively increase the image resolution in subdiffraction optical microscopy, although the precise molecular basis for this change has not been elucidated. This work shows that the Lys145Asn mutation in PDM1-4 stabilizes the interface available for dimerization, facilitating oligomerization of the protein. No significant changes were observed in the chromophore environment of PDM1-4 compared with Dronpa, and the ensemble absorption and emission properties of PDM1-4 were highly similar to those of Dronpa. It is proposed that the slower off-switching rate in PDM1-4 is caused by a decrease in the potential flexibility of certain beta-strands caused by oligomerization along the AC interface.
