Br-bacteriorhodopsin-light driven pump

Details

• Types: DnaRegion
• Roles: Coding; CDS
• Sequences: BBa_K129002_sequence (Version 1)

Description

Bacteriorhodopsin (bR) expressed in purple membrane of Halobacterium salinarum is an outward light-driven
proton pump, bR is excited and relaxed to the original bR via a variety of photo-intermediates.
During this linear and cycling photochemical reaction (photocycle), bR transports one proton from the
cytoplasm to the extracellular medium

Notes

An additional treatment is necessary to obtain a proper conformation. The first functional
expression of an archaeal rhodopsin in E. coli membranes was achieved by Shimono et al. against
phoborhodopsin (sensory rhodopsin II) from Natronomonas pharaonis (ppR).
