KCR channelrhodopsins (K+-selective light-gated ion channels) have received attention as
potential inhibitory optogenetic tools but more broadly pose a fundamental mystery …

Potassium-selective channelrhodopsins (KCRs) are light-gated K+ channels recently found
in the stramenopile protist Hyphochytrium catenoides. When expressed in neurons, KCRs …

Channelrhodopsins (ChRs) are light-gated ion channels that are widely used to optically
activate or silence electrogenic cells such as neurons. Here, we describe the identification …
