Structural insights into light-gating of potassium-selective channelrhodopsin

Abstract Structural information on channelrhodopsins’ mechanism of light-gated ion conductance is scarce, limiting its engineering as optogenetic tools. Here, we use single-particle cryo-electron microscopy of peptidisc-incorporated protein samples to determine the structures of the slow-cycling mut...
