This book provides an update for the rapidly developing technology known as “optogenetics”, which is the use of genetically encoded light-sensitive molecular elements (usually derived from lower organisms) to control or report various physiological and biochemical processes within the cell. Two ongoing clinical trials use optogenetic tools for vision restoration, and optogenetic strategies have been suggested as novel therapies for several neurological, psychiatric and cardiac disorders. This Special Issue comprises two reviews and seven experimental papers on different types of light-sensitive modules widely used in optogenetic studies. These papers demonstrate the efficiency and versatility of optogenetics and are expected to be equally relevant for advanced users and beginners considering using optogenetic tools in their research.

Research & information: general --- Biology, life sciences --- optogenetic tools --- neuroscience --- calcium sensor --- voltage sensor --- neurotransmitters --- optogenetics --- channelrhodopsins --- sodium --- calcium --- DC gate --- Optogenetics --- p53 --- AsLOV2 --- LINuS --- LEXY --- MIP --- PMI --- Chlamydomonas reinhardtii --- ion channel --- electrophysiology --- molecular dynamics simulations --- membrane-protein interaction --- energy of membrane deformation --- CTMD method, residual hydrophobic mismatch --- microbial rhodopsin --- channelrhodopsin --- membrane current --- hippocampal neurons --- light stimulation --- channelrhodopsin-2 --- photoreceptor --- BLUF --- modular domain --- resonance Raman --- flash photolysis --- hybrid QM/MM simulation --- two-photon --- azobenzene --- photoswitch --- photoswitching --- photocontrol --- all-optical electrophysiology --- microbial rhodopsins --- ion channels --- LOV domains --- membrane potential --- intracellular trafficking --- protein–protein interaction --- signaling

This book presents a collection of 13 original research articles that focus on the science of light–matter interaction. This area of science has been led to some the greatest accomplishments of the past 100 years, with the discovery of materials that perform useful operations by collecting light or generating light from an outside stimulus. These materials are at the center of a multitude of technologies that have permeated our daily life; every day we rely on quantum well lasers for telecommunication, organic light emitting diodes for our displays, complementary metal–oxide–semiconductors for our camera detectors, and of course a plethora of new photovoltaic cells that harvest sunlight to satisfy our energy needs. In this book, top-rated researchers present their latest findings in the field of nano-particles, plasmonics, semi-conductors, magneto-optics, and holography.
