Very excited to share our first lab preprint on the structure and function of ChRmine, a completely new type of channelrhodopsin!
(Cryo-EM structure of ChRmine at 2.0Å resolution!)

Day 6 Prompt: Photoreceptor.
Imagery inspired by optic nerves and Rhodopsin - the green blue light reception in the rod cells of the retina.
Title: Rhodopsin
Medium: Acrylic ink, pearlescent ink, colour pencil and fine liner pen.
Following our recent publication on the light-driven sodium pump KR2, I prepared my first (ever) animation on the mechanism of Na+ translocation. All 5 protomers can bind sodium simultaneously! Feedback is welcome😉

Genomes of giant marine viruses encode many proteins with no known homologues, but this viral rhodopsin, solved by scientists @MBARI_News et al and published in @PNASNews certainly has homologues!
