文摘

•: LITE-1, a taste receptor homolog, is a bona fide photoreceptor that senses UV light
•: LITE-1 has a high efficiency of photon capturing
•: Photoabsorption by LITE-1 relies on its conformation and requires two Trp residues
•: Introducing such a Trp residue into a related protein promotes photosensitivity
