CatCh

This part is the CatCh channelrhodopsin

Usage and Biology

CatCh is a channelrhodopsin derived from the ChR2 of 'Chlamydomonas reinhardtii' [1], from which it only retains the first 309 amino acids containing the N-terminal transmembrane domain forming. Compared to ChR2, it also contains one mutation L132C that modifies the photocurrent generated upon light irradiation. CatCh is a Ca2+ inward pump that is also capable of transporting, although to a lesser extent, Na⁺, K⁺ and Mg²⁺. It was successfully used in optogenetic therapies for visual restoration in primates [2].
