Magic™ Membrane Protein Bacteria OE_RS05715 (Bacteriorhodopsin) (CAT#: MP0005F)

The Bacteriorhodopsin is a transmembrane protein that acts as a light-driven proton pump in Halobacterium salinarum, converting light energy into a proton gradient. BR functions as a pump of protons from the cytoplasm to the extracelullar space, in order to create a proton gradient. Afterwards, protons enter the cell, and the cell takes advantage of that by coupling to a reaction that synthesizes ATP. The energy required by BR is provided by green light. At the end of the process, the outcome is that the cell transformed energy from light into ATP, the energetic currency of the cell.

  • Introduction
  • Bacteriorhodopsin is a protein used by Archaea, most notably by haloarchaea, a class of the Euryarchaeota. It acts as a proton pump; that is, it captures light energy and uses it to move protons across the membrane out of the cell.
