Atomistic Insight into the Role of Threonine 127 in the Functional Mechanism of Channelrhodopsin-2
Channelrhodopsins (ChRs) belong to the unique class of light-gated ion channels. The structure of channelrhodopsin-2 from <i>Chlamydomonas reinhardtii</i> (<i>Cr</i>ChR2) has been resolved, but the mechanistic link between light-induced isomerization of the chromophore retina...
