Yes, please!
I agree!!
I also do not understand when reviewers criticize whole membrane protein quantity as an "inadequate" normalizer (happens to me a lot) - it is much better than any single protein!

Thanks! We still need to identify the innitial light sensor(s) to answer those questions, upstream of AMPK. Still have work ahead...

Surprisingly, we find that red light specifically enhances fatty acid oxidation by activating the AMPK pathway.
This is a completely new and unexpected (at least to me) manner in which light can affect our cells!

Light at different wavelengths has distinct effects on keratinocyte viability and metabolism. UVA light abrogates metabolic fluxes. Blue and green light have no effect on metabolic fluxes, while red ...

Most strikingly, red light promotes an increase in mitochondrial electron transport which is cell-specific, and independent of changes in oxidative phosphorylation machinery.
