CRYPTOCHROME is a blue-light sensor that regulates neuronal firing rate.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 18 Mar 2011

Fogle Keri J, Parson Kelly G, Dahm Nicole A, Holmes Todd C

Abstract excerpt

Light-responsive neural activity in central brain neurons is generally conveyed through opsin-based signaling from external photoreceptors. Large lateral ventral arousal neurons (lLNvs) in Drosophila melanogaster increase action potential firing within seconds in response to light in the absence...
