Chromophore

Loading

Chromophores are light-absorbing molecular components that initiate photoreceptor activation. Explore their chemistry, spectral properties, photochemistry, and roles in phytochromes, cryptochromes, phototropins, UVR8, and animal opsins.

Photoreceptor

Loading

Photoreceptors are specialized molecular sensors that detect light and initiate signaling pathways controlling gene expression, development, metabolism, circadian rhythms, and environmental adaptation.

Light Signaling

Loading

Light signaling is a complex biological system through which organisms detect different wavelengths of light and convert environmental information into changes in gene expression, development, metabolism, and physiology.
