Branching Photocycle of Sensory Rhodopsin in Halobacterium Halobium

Hiroyuki Ohtani, Takayoshi Kobayashi and Motoyuki Tsuda

ABSTRACT

Temperature effect of the photocyle of sensory rhodopsin (sR) was studied by nanosecond spectroscopy. Though the formation yield of sRM (sR370) was sharply decreased with temperature, those of sRK (sR680) and sRL were insensitive to temperature changes. These results show the existence of the branching process back to sR from sRL. The absorption maxima for sRK and sRL were 595 ± 5 and 555 ± 15 nm, respectively.
