New chemo-optogenetic method enables multi-directional activity control of cellular processes

Cells need for reactions on environmental changes and a balanced system of signaling cascades within the cell. Proteins outside of the cell, on the cellular surface, inside the cellular membrane, and within the cell orchestrate many fine-tuned signaling pathways, which result in adequate reactions on the environmental conditions or changes in the organism itself.
