Reversal of etiolation

Etiolated plants are those that have been grown in the dark, light stimulates increased [cytokinin] which stimulates cell division and greening.

increases [GA] which presumably stimulates IAA oxidase production to get rid of excess IAA that causes the long spindly growth.

IAA stimulates ethylene synthesis which maintains the apical hook, treating the apical hook with red light + ethylene maintains the hook.

This recombinational event is catalyzed by a set of enzymes, many of which are also involved in nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) DNA repair functions that occur in all cells.

FtsZ functions at an early stage of septum formation. Early in the division cycle, FtsZ is localized throughout the cytoplasm, but prior to cell division.

TBP causes the minor groove to be widened to an almost flat conformation; it also bends the DNA by an angle of 80. The interaction between TBP and DNA involves only a limited number of hydrogen bonds between the protein and the edges of the base pairs in the minor groove.  Instead, much of the specificity is imposed by two pairs of phenylalanine side chains that intercalate between the base pairs at either end of the recognition sequence and drive the strong bend in the DNA.

 Scatchard plots are based on repeated equilibrium dialyses with a constant concentration of antibody and varying concentration of ligand. 
If all antibodies have the same affinity, then a Scatchard plot yields a straight line with a slope of Ka. The x intercept is n, the valency of the antibody, which is 2 for IgG and other divalent Igs. For IgM, which is pentameric, n  10, and for dimeric IgA, n  4. In this graph, antibody #1 has a higher affinity than antibody #2.
