In Situ Study of the Function of Bacterioruberin in the Dual‐Chromophore Photoreceptor Archaerhodopsin‐4 [PDF]

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie - International Edition, 2018
AbstractWhile certain archaeal ion pumps have been shown to contain two chromophores, retinal and the carotenoid bacterioruberin, the functions of bacterioruberin have not been well explored. To address this research gap, recombinant archaerhodopsin‐4 (aR4), either with retinal only or with both retinal and bacterioruberin chromophores, was ...

Sustainable production of C50 carotenoid bacterioruberin from methane using soil-enriched microbial consortia

Bioresource Technology
Bacterioruberin is widely used in medicine, food, and cosmetics owing to its prominent characteristics of antioxidants and bioactivities. Bioconversion of methane into bacterioruberin is a promising way to address biomanufacturing substrate costs and greenhouse gas emissions but has not been achieved yet.

Bacterioruberins Reinforce Reconstituted Halobacterium Lipid Membranes

1991
We have developed methodologies for the determination of the topology of α,ω-dihydroxylated carotenoids incorporated into vesicles and for the evaluation of the reinforcing effects of these carotenoids on lipid bilayers.

Structural Role of Bacterioruberin in the Trimeric Structure of Archaerhodopsin-2

Journal of Molecular Biology, 2008
Archaerhodopsin-2 (aR2), a retinal protein-carotenoid complex found in the claret membrane of Halorubrum sp. aus-2, functions as a light-driven proton pump. In this study, the membrane fusion method was utilized to prepare trigonal P321 crystals (a=b=98.2 A, c=56.2 A) and hexagonal P6(3) crystals (a=b=108.8 A, c=220.7 A).

Membrane Independence of Ultrafast Photochemistry in Pharaonis Halorhodopsin: Testing the Role of Bacterioruberin

The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2017
Ultrafast photochemistry of pharaonis halorhodopsin (p-HR) in the intact membrane of Natronomonas pharaonis has been studied by photoselective femtosecond pump-hyperspectral probe spectroscopy with high time resolution. Two variants of this sample were studied, one with wild-type retinal prosthetic groups and another after shifting the retinal ...

Bacterioruberin and salinixanthin carotenoids of extremely halophilic Archaea and Bacteria: A Raman spectroscopic study

Spectrochimica Acta Part A: Molecular and Biomolecular Spectroscopy, 2013
Laboratory cultures of a number of red extremely halophilic Archaea (Halobacterium salinarum strains NRC-1 and R1, Halorubrum sodomense, Haloarcula valismortis) and of Salinibacter ruber, a red extremely halophilic member of the Bacteria, have been investigated by Raman spectroscopy using 514.5nm excitation to characterize their carotenoids.

Characteristics of Halorhodopsin–Bacterioruberin Complex from Natronomonas pharaonis Membrane in the Solubilized System

Biochemistry, 2012
Halorhodopsin is a retinal protein with a seven-transmembrane helix and acts as an inward light-driven Cl(-) pump. In this study, structural state of the solubilized halorhodopsin (NpHR) from the biomembrane of mutant strain KM-1 of Natronomonas pharaonis in nonionic detergent was investigated.

Antioxidative effects of haloarchaeal bacterioruberin in pangasius emulsion sausage during refrigerated storage

Journal of Food Science
Abstract The present study used haloarchaeal bacterioruberin (BR), a carotenoid pigment, to improve color and reduce fat oxidation. The BR is incorporated as 10 mg/kg (T1), 25 mg/kg (T2), and 50 mg/kg (T3) in the emulsion sausages, and 200 mg/kg butylated hydroxytoluene was used as a ...

Estimation of bacterioruberin by Raman spectroscopy during the growth of halophilic archaeon Haloarcula marismortui

Applied Optics, 2014
Halophilic archaea are interesting microorganisms that produce low biomass and metabolites, complicating their quantification. Raman spectroscopy (RS) is a powerful technique, which requires small samples, attractive for using in archaeal research.
