- Title
The promise of optogenetics in cell biology: interrogating molecular circuits in space and time.
- Authors
Toettcher, Jared E.; Voigt, Christopher A.; Weiner, Orion D.; Lim, Wendell A.
- Abstract
In this article, the authors discusses the optogenetics technology for controlling intracellular processes, including the localization of proteins in the cell. They explain how optogenetics modulate cell signaling cascades and had helped the scientists in their understanding in cellular biology. They believed that the technology is essential in the development of unexplored avenues in science.
