Photoactivatable CaMKII induces synaptic plasticity in single synapses

Optogenetic control of molecules is important in cell biology and neuroscience. Here, the authors describe an optogenetic tool to control the Ca²+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II and use it to control plasticity at the single synapse level.
