We used a retinal analogue to solve cryo-EM structures of bistable opsin signalling complexes. The structures elucidate key differences in the mechanisms of vertebrate and invertebrate vision and may help develop better optogenetic tools @GSchertler https://t.co/fGBMzlDQX4

Our team has identified a non-natural retinal analogue that can activate a bistable opsin without light. Opsins are responsible for invertebrate vision and regulation of circadian rhythms in mammals. The analogues help us study light perception in animals https://t.co/YBimcoVk0c

My first paper as a postdoc in the lab David Drew is out
Check-out the.first structure of a unique transporter which is regulated by a voltage sensing domain.
Great team work!!
