Experimentally informed, quantitative photocycle model of the light-gated potassium channel WiChR Light-gated ion channels (channelrhodopsins; ChR) can be used to precisely control the electrical activity of genetically targeted cell populations wi…

Very happy to share our new manuscript on the photocycle of the highly sensitive, K⁺-selective channelrhodopsin #WiChR. Combining electrophysiology with K⁺ imaging & comp. modelling. Thanks Franzi for this fruitful cooperation—congrats to Sophia, Linda & team!

Four years ago, the red-light–activated channelrhodopsin #Chrimson restored basic vision in a blind patient. Here, we uncover its #multicolor_photoreactions and show implications for optogenetic applications. Many interesting details and a wonderful team🥳! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
