Popis: Light-sensitive regulators of protein kinases could offer valuable insights into intracellular signalling. Here the authors design an optogenetic inhibitor of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and show evidence for resonance in JNK signalling circuits in neurons, and use the same design principle to develop an inhibitor for p38MAPK.
