OptoBase is an annotated database, which aims to cover all existing non-opsin-based optogenetic switches and publications. It is meant for both expert optogeneticists, to easily keep track of the field, as well as for all researchers who find optogenetics inviting as a powerful tool to address their biological questions of interest.

This month we dive into the world of optogenetically induced condensates and their application possibilities.
Paper of the Month October: Light-induced targeting enables proteomics on endogenous condensates.
Featured Paper: Optogenetic control of condensates: principles and applications.

Dear OptoBase Users,
We are excited to announce that OptoBase has undergone a design refresh!
You’ll still find all the information, publications, and your favorite switches - including some brand new switches and tools - right where you expect them.
We hope you enjoy the new look and wish you continued success in your research.
Best regards,
The OptoBase Team
