Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Multilayer protein films are provided, which comprise native bacteriorhodopsin and/or specialized bacteriorhodopsin mutants as the photoactive element. Also provided are artificial subretinal and epiretinal implants carrying such bacteriorhodopsin films, as well as methods for making and using the same, for example, to treat retinal diseases and conditions.
