Structures of the archaerhodopsin-3 transporter reveal that disordering of internal water networks underpins receptor sensitization
Archaerhodopsin-3 (AR3) mutants are commonly used in optogenetics for neuron silencing and membrane voltage sensing. High-resolution crystal structures show that desensitization of the AR3 photoreceptor occurs when internal hydrogen-bonded water networks are modified in response to changes in chromo...

| Sumario: | Archaerhodopsin-3 (AR3) mutants are commonly used in optogenetics for neuron silencing and membrane voltage sensing. High-resolution crystal structures show that desensitization of the AR3 photoreceptor occurs when internal hydrogen-bonded water networks are modified in response to changes in chromophore isomerization. |
