Pulling single bacteriorhodopsin out of a membrane: Comparison of simulation and experiment [PDF]
, 2006 Mechanical unfolding of single bacteriorhodopsins from a membrane bilayer is studied using molecular dynamics simulations. The initial conformation of the lipid membrane is determined through all-atom simulations and then its coarse-grained ...

Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.This review surveys eukaryotic cilia as putative quantum‐enabled sensory and regulatory centers. It highlights their multifaceted roles in the cell, focuses on the nontrivial roles of quantum mechanics in their membrane and cytoskeletal proteins, and introduces the essential building blocks enabling quantum properties to survive in the warm, wet, and ...

FLUORESCENCE STUDIES ON ANTHRYL BACTERIORHODOPSINS
, 1991 Fluorescence properties of bacteriorhodopsin analogues containing 3-methyl-5-(9'-anthryl)-2E,4E-pentadienal and 3,7-dimethyl-9-(9'-anthryl)-2E,4E,6E,8E-nonatetraenal chromophores as built-in fluorescence probes are described.

Perturbed interaction between residues 85 and 204 in Tyr-185-->Phe and Asp-85-->Glu bacteriorhodopsins [PDF]
, 1996 According to earlier reports, residue 85 in the bacteriorhodopsin mutants D85E and Y185F deprotonates with two apparent pKa values. Additionally, in Y185F, Asp-85 becomes significantly more protonated during light adaptation. We provide a new explanation

Chromophore equilibria in bacteriorhodopsin
Biophysical Journal, 1979 An investigation of the dark equilibria between different chromophores of bacteriorhodopsin (BR) and studies of the kinetics of their interconversion and photochemical activity have led to the following conclusions. (a) A component of the 605-nm chromophore of BR decays in the millisecond range and is likely to be identical to the intermediate O of the

Photoisomerization detected in a fully wavelength‐tunable rhodopsin mimic system
Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 664-671, June 2026.The mechanism of retinal photoswitching is illuminated in a designed rhodopsin mimic. Two mechanisms, a conventional cis–trans isomerization and an unprecedented `photodehydration', are observed at atomic resolution in single crystals.We describe the photoisomerization of the retinylidene protonated Schiff base in human retinol‐binding protein II ...

On the two forms of bacteriorhodopsin
FEBS Letters, 1994 In our previous work [(1993) FEBS Lett. 313, 248‐250; (1993) Biochem. Int. 30,461‐469] M‐intermediate formation of wild‐type bacteriorhodopsin was shown to involve two components differing in time constants (τ1 = 60–70 μs and τ2 = 220–250 μs), which were suggested to reflect two independent pathways of M‐intermediate formation.

GRKs and arrestins: Nomenclature and functions in GPCR‐dependent and ‐independent signalling
British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 11, Page 2619-2633, June 2026.G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) kinases (GRKs) and arrestins play a critical role in the regulation of GPCR signalling. Historic names of mammalian GRKs were replaced by systematic ones in the 1990s; however, both kinds of names are currently in use for mammalian arrestins.

Unravelling the folding of bacteriorhodopsin
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2000 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 ...
