An assessment of the resolution limitation due to radiation-damage in x-ray diffraction microscopy
X-ray diffraction microscopy (XDM) is a new form of x-ray imaging that is being practiced at several third-generation synchrotron-radiation x-ray facilities.

Electrostatics and electrodynamics of bacteriorhodopsin
The stationary electric dichroism of bacteriorhodopsin is in qualitative, but not quantitative, agreement with the orientation function for disks having a permanent dipole directed perpendicular to the plane and an induced dipole in the plane. Fits of the orientation function to data measured at low field strengths demonstrate: an increase of the ...

How does chemistry scale in complexity to unerringly direct biological functions? Nass Kovacs et al. have shown that bacteriorhodopsin undergoes structural changes tantalizingly similar to the expected pathway even under excessive excitation.

Dynamics of active membranes with internal noise
We study the time-dependent height fluctuations of an active membrane containing energy-dissipating pumps that drive the membrane out of equilibrium.

Unravelling the folding of bacteriorhodopsin
The folding mechanism of integral membrane proteins has eluded detailed study, largely as a result of the inherent difficulties in folding these proteins in vitro. The seven-transmembrane helical protein bacteriorhodopsin has, however, allowed major advances to be made, not just on the folding of this particular protein, but also on the factors ...

Serial femtosecond crystallography using X-ray free-electron lasers has huge potential for time-resolved structural experiments. Here, the authors present a structure of the light-driven proton pump bacteriorhodopsin using these techniques.

Mixed Potential Energy Surfaces of the Ultrafast Isomerization of Retinal in Bacteriorhodopsin
We observe, using electronic two-dimensional photon echo spectroscopy, that the cis and trans potential energy surfaces of the ultrafast isomerization of retinal in bacteriorhodopsin are mixed via the hydrogen out of plane (HOOP) mode.
