Craig Montell discusses work from his group that identifies an unexpected role for the light sensor rhodopsin in thermosensation. Rhodopsin is a G protein{\textendash}coupled receptor that initiates intracellular signaling in response to light and has been thought to function exclusively in light sensation. This new finding raises questions about the original function of rhodopsin and the possibility that rhodopsin might act as a thermal sensor in other animals.}, issn = {1945-0877}, URL = {https://stke.sciencemag.org/content/4/164/pc5}, eprint = {https://stke.sciencemag.org/content}, journal = {Science Signaling} }
