Abstract
The displacement current is measured in a suspension of electric field-oriented purple membranes isolated from Halobacterium halobium, the photocycle being driven by a light flash. A simple quantitative theory of the method is presented and used to evaluate the distances the protons move during their way through the bacteriorhodopsin molecules. A lower limit of the velocity of proton movement is also given.Entities:
