How to control cyclic nucleotide signaling by light
Jansen, Vera; Jikeli, Jan F.; Wachten, Dagmar (2017-03-10)Optogenetics allows to non-invasively manipulate cellular functions with spatio-temporal precision by combining genetic engineering with the control of protein function by light. Since the discovery of channelrhodopsin has ... -
Shedding light on the role of cAMP in mammalian sperm physiology
Balbach, Melanie; Beckert, Vera; Hansen, Jan N.; Wachten, Dagmar (2018-06-15)Mammalian fertilization relies on sperm finding the egg and penetrating the egg vestments. All steps in a sperm's lifetime crucially rely on changes in the second messenger cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate). In recent ...
