摘要
Bacteriorhodopsin (BR) from Halobacterium salinarum as well as halorhodopsin (pHR) and sensory rhodopsin II (pSRII) from Natronobacterium pharaonis were functionally expressed in E. coli using the method of Shimono et al, [FEBS Lett, (1997) 420. 54-56]. The histidine tagged proteins were purified with yields up to 1.0 mg/l cell culture and characterized by ESI mass spectrometry and their photocycle. The pSRII and PHR photocycles were indistinguishable from the wild type proteins. The BR photocycle was considerably prolonged. pSOII is located in the cytoplasmic membrane and the C-terminus is oriented ton ards the cytoplasm as determined by immunogold labelling.
