A live cell assay of GPCR coupling allows identification of optogenetic tools for controlling Go and Gi signaling

BACKGROUND: Animal opsins are light-sensitive G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that enable optogenetic control over the major heterotrimeric G-protein signaling pathways in animal cells. As such, opsins have potential applications in both biomedical research and therapy. Selecting the opsin with...
