Molecular Scale Conductance Photoswitching in Engineered Bacteriorhodopsin
Olivia Berthoumieu, Amol V. Patil, Wang Xi, Lubica Aslimovska, Jason J. Davis, and Anthony WattsNano Letters2012 12 (2), 899-903Molecular Scale Conductance Photoswitching in Engineered Bacteriorhodopsin
Olivia Berthoumieu, Amol V. Patil, Wang Xi, Lubica Aslimovska, Jason J. Davis, and Anthony WattsNano Letters2012 12 (2), 899-903Bacteriorhodopsin (BR) is a robust light-driven proton pump embedded in the purple membrane of the extremophilic archae Halobacterium salinarium. Its photoactivity remains in the dry state, making BR of significant interest for nanotechnological use. Here,...
