Abstract
Sensory rhodopsin I (SRI) from Halobacterium salinarum was functionally expressed in Escherichia coli and subsequently purified to homogeneity using a C-terminal His-tag anchor. Yields of 3-4 mg SRI/l cell culture can be obtained. The absorption and photocycle properties of SRI were similar if not indistinguishable from those of the homologously expressed SRI. A global fit analysis of the photocycle data and the calculation of the spectra of states provided strong evidence for the existence of an N-like intermediate.Entities:
