Biomimetic chromatophores for camouflage and soft active surfaces [PDF]
, 2020 Chromatophores are the pigment-containing cells in the skins of animals such as fish and cephalopods which have chromomorphic (colour-changing) and controllable goniochromic (iridescent-changing) properties.

THE CHROMATOPHORAL NEUROHUMORS OF THE DOGFISH [PDF]
Journal of General Physiology, 1935 1. The common dogfish, Mustelus canis, as is well known, exhibits two temporary extremes of tint, one dark, the other light. The dark phase is induced by a secretion from the pituitary gland which is carried in the blood, hence a substance soluble in water (a hydroneurohumor).

The ultrastructure of the chromatophores of Crangon and Pandalus (Crustacea)
, 1971 The ultrastructure of the chromatophores of two decapod crustaceans, Crangon crangon and Pandalus borealis, is investigated. The pigment appears macroscopically as small units, so-called chromatosomes.

Possible involvement of cone opsins in distinct photoresponses of intrinsically photosensitive dermal chromatophores in tilapia Oreochromis niloticus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Dermal specialized pigment cells (chromatophores) are thought to be one type of extraretinal photoreceptors responsible for a wide variety of sensory tasks, including adjusting body coloration.

Connectivity of centermost chromatophores in Rhodobacter sphaeroides bacteria
, 2018 The size of whole Rhodobacter sphaeroides prevents 3D visualization of centermost chromatophores in their native environment. This study combines cryo-focused ion beam milling with cryo-electron tomography to probe vesicle architecture both in situ and ...

Intrinsic Curvature Properties of Photosynthetic Proteins in Chromatophores [PDF]
, 2008 In purple bacteria, photosynthesis is carried out on large indentations of the bacterial plasma membrane termed chromatophores. Acting as primitive organelles, chromatophores are densely packed with the membrane proteins necessary for photosynthesis ...
