Electrically programmable picoscale phototransduction of a newly discovered microbial rhodopsin

2026-05-31

Abstract excerpt

Human retina can achieve single-photon sensitivity through specialised photoreceptors that convert light into electrical signals via phototransduction. Among microbial light-sensitive proteins, proteorhodopsins stand out for their intrinsic light-driven ion transport and spectral tunability, making them promising candidates for bio-inspired photonic devices. A central challenge for acellular integration, however,...
