Rhodopsins, or retinal proteins, are light-sensitive membrane proteins, with very important biological functions. In vertebrates, rhodopsins are the sensors for vision.
Pr. Inoue is a world-leading expert in the photochemical studies of microbial retinal proteins (https://www.icpworldcongress.com/keiichi-inoue). His research aims at a detailed molecular understanding of how the different biological functions of these rhodopsins are encoded in the structural and spectroscopic properties.
