Phototransduction in a supramolecular cascade: a mimic for essential features of the vision process

Jialei Chen-Wu et al. Chem Commun (Camb). .

Abstract

The tailored design of a light-triggered supramolecular cascade results in an artificial machinery that assimilates the transduction of photons into chemical communication and the final release of a neurotransmitter. This is reminiscent of key steps in the natural vision process.
