Picosecond Measurements on Halorhodopsin of Halobacterium Halobium

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Halobacterium halobium contains at least two retinylidene protein units that show photoactivity. Bacteriorhodopsin, a light-driven proton pump, has been known for more than a decade and has been studied extensively. Halorhodopsin (or P588) was only discovered recently. Its light-driven pump acts on chlorine ions.1 Until now, the photoreaction cycle in halorhodopsin was studied on a time scale of microseconds.2 We present the first known investigations on halorhodopsin on a picosecond time scale.
