| Although this can be visualized for bacteriorhodopsin, the calculation is a large computational undertaking. |
|
| The membrane protein bacteriorhodopsin, a light-driven proton pump, is a very suitable protein to study proton transfer. |
|
| Even native, isolated pigment proteins like bacteriorhodopsin have been investigated for their applicability as optical switches. |
|
| The integral membrane protein bacteriorhodopsin acts as a light-driven proton pump in the purple membrane of Halobacterium salinarum. |
|
| This is one order of magnitude slower than the decay of K in the bacteriorhodopsin photocycle. |
|
| Upon replacement of chloride ion with azide, the fast electric signal changes its sign from positive to negative, and becomes similar to that detected in bacteriorhodopsin. |
|
| Another anion, azide, is used in the study of bacteriorhodopsin mutants as a substitute for proton donor or acceptor when they are altered in the protein. |
|
| Valentyn Prokhorenko of the University of Toronto and colleagues investigated whether the wave property of matter could influence the chemistry of retinal, a molecule in the protein bacteriorhodopsin. |
|
| Mutant of bacteriorhodopsin, characterized in that aspartic acid is mutated to asparagine in positions 85 and 96 of the opsin of a wild-type strain of Halobacteria. |
|
| He was a member of the team that improved the diffraction quality of bacteriorhodopsin crystals grown in LCP, generating the best diffracting crystals obtained to date. |
|
| Bacteriorhodopsin is the light-harvesting protein of the purple membrane of the halophilic microorganism Halobacterium halobium. |
|
| Bacteriorhodopsin is found in the rods of the eye, and the chemistry of retinal is critical for vision. |
