Ziapin 2 is a membrane potential modulator and an intracellular membrane photoactuator. Ziapin 2 binds to the bacterial plasma membrane, and upon embedding into the lipid bilayer, undergoes trans-cis isomerization under 470 nm light irradiation, which triggers membrane potential hyperpolarization and induces the opening of ion channels on bacterial cell membranes. Through interactions with lipids, Ziapin 2 increases the overall flexibility of the lipid bilayer. Ziapin 2 can form photosensitive transmembrane dimers to trigger cellular signal transduction. Ziapin 2 is applicable to the research and regulation of bacterial electrical signal transduction and the regulation of membrane physical properties[1][2].
