Hijacking of internal calcium dynamics by intracellularly residing rhodopsins

A.-S. Eria-Oliveira, M. Folacci, A. A. Chassot, S. Fedou, N. Theze, D. Zabelskii, A. Alekseev, E. Bamberg, V. Gordeliy, G. Sandoz, M. Vivaudou

The paper shows that viral channelrhodopsins (VCR1s) induce intracellular calcium release upon illumination, enabling light-controlled muscle contraction in tadpoles, suggesting a new optogenetic tool.

Revealing the Oligomerization of Channelrhodopsin-2 in the Cell Membrane using Photo-Activated Localization Microscopy

E. Bestsennaia, I. Maslov, T. Balandin, A. Alekseev, A. Yudenko, A. A. Shamseye, D. Zabelskii, A. Baumann, C. Catapano, C. Karathanasis, V. Gordeliy, M. Heilemann, T. Gensch, V. Borshchevskiy

This study uses qPALM to show ChR2 predominantly forms dimers in the cell membrane, with disulfide bonds not essential for dimerization and partial monomerization observed at low concentrations.

Viral channelrhodopsins: calcium-dependent Na+/K+ selective light-gated channels

D. Zabelskii, A. Alekseev, K. Kovalev, A.-S. Oliveira, T. Balandin, D. Soloviov, D. Bratanov, D. Volkov, S. Vaganova, R. Astashkin, I. Chizhov, N. Yutin, M. Rulev, A. Popov, T. Rokitskaya, , V. Gordeliy

The paper characterizes two viral channelrhodopsins, showing they are Ca2+-dependent Na+/K+ channels with unique optogenetic properties and structural differences from known channelrhodopsins.
