Optical picosecond studies of bacteriorhodopsin containing a sterically fixed retinal [PDF]
, 1984 The photochemical behaviour of an analogous bacteriorhodopsin (9,12-Ph-BR) which contains the sterically fixed 9,12-phenylretinal has been investigated with picosecond spectroscopy. The following results have been obtained.

X-ray structure analysis of bacteriorhodopsin at 1.3 Å resolution
Scientific Reports, 2018 Bacteriorhodopsin (bR) of Halobacterium salinarum is a membrane protein that acts as a light-driven proton pump. bR and its homologues have recently been utilized in optogenetics and other applications. Although the structures of those have been reported

Proton translocation in proteins [PDF]
, 1989 The active transport of protons across the low dielectric barrier imposed by biological membranes is accomplished by a plethora of proteins that span the ca. 40 Å of the phospholipid bilayer.

The bacteriorhodopsin gene. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1981 The bacteriorhodopsin gene has been identified in a 5.3-kilobase restriction endonuclease fragment isolated from Halobacterium halobium DNA, using a cloned cDNA fragment as the probe. Of the 1229 nucleotides whose sequence was determined in the genomic fragment, 786 correspond to the structural gene of bacteriorhodopsin, 360 are upstream from the ...

pH-sensitive vibrational probe reveals a cytoplasmic protonated cluster in bacteriorhodopsin
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017 Significance The vectorial transport of protons across membranes by pumps is central to cellular bioenergetics. A persistent problem in their study is the technical unfeasibility to simultaneously resolve the dynamics of all the relevant proton transfer ...
