Functional Expression, Targeting and Ca2+ Signaling of a Mouse Melanopsin‐eYFP Fusion Protein in a Retinal Pigment Epithelium Cell Line†
Summary:
This paper discusses the challenges of expressing and purifying melanopsin, a unique non-visual photosensitive pigment.
Categories
- Eye health: The paper discusses the role of melanopsin, a pigment found in the eye, and the challenges associated with its expression and purification.
- Lighting Design Considerations: The paper indirectly discusses this category by examining melanopsin, a pigment that responds to light, which could have implications for lighting design.
