Retinal isomerization and water-pore formation in channelrhodopsin-2
Significance Channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) is a light-activated membrane ion channel that is widely used in biotechnological applications and optogenetics. Nonetheless, key elements of its structure, photocycle, and mechanism of action remain unresolved.

Single‐cell genomics meets systems neuroscience: Insights from mapping the brain circuitry of stress
Abstract Responses to external and internal dangers is essential for survival and homeostatic regulation. Hypothalamic corticotropin‐releasing hormone neurons (CRHNs) play a pivotal role in regulating neuroendocrine responses to fear and stress.

Organelle Optogenetics: Direct Manipulation of Intracellular Ca2+ Dynamics by Light
As one of the ubiquitous second messengers, the intracellular Ca2+, has been revealed to be a pivotal regulator of various cellular functions. Two major sources are involved in the initiation of Ca2+-dependent signals: influx from the extracellular space
