Abstrakt: This article, titled "Cover Feature: Engineering a Cl-Modulated Light-Driven Na+ Pump," discusses the development of a new chemical modulation mode for a microbial Na+-pumping rhodopsin (NaR) protein. The researchers introduced a potential chloride (Cl-) binding site in the protein, which increased the uptake and transport activity of sodium ions (Na+). This Cl--modulated NaR has potential applications in optogenetic therapies for neurological diseases. The article provides more information on this research and can be found in the Chemistry - A European Journal. [Extracted from the article]
