Title:
OPTOGENETIC MODULATION BY MULTI-CHARACTERISTIC OPSINS FOR VISION RESTORATION AND OTHER APPLICATIONS THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/106369
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
This invention, in one aspect, relates generally to compositions and methods for modulating cellular activities by synthetic opsins. Further, the invention provides method for the use of synthetic opsins for vision restoration and other applications, wherein the amino acid sequence of the synthetic opsin is modified to provide enhanced light sensitivity, kinetics and ion-selectivity.
