Summary
This paper discusses the design of an ultra-fast G protein switch based on a mouse melanopsin variant, which is a promising optogenetic tool functioning as a selective molecular light switch for G protein coupled receptor pathways.
Categories
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the use of optogenetics, a technique that uses light to control cells in living tissue, which can be used to manipulate cognitive function and memory.
Phototherapy: The paper discusses the use of light in manipulating cellular processes, which is a form of phototherapy.
Lighting Design Considerations: The paper discusses the design of an ultra-fast G protein switch based on a mouse melanopsin variant, which is a form of lighting design.
