Light-promoted rhodopsin expression and starvation survival in the marine dinoflagellate Oxyrrhis marina.
The discovery of microbial rhodopsins in marine proteobacteria changed the dogma that photosynthesis is the only pathway to use the solar energy for biological utilization in the marine environment. Although homologs of these rhodopsins have been identified in dinoflagellates, the diversity of the e...
