Question
Chapter 9, Problem 22P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for the given behavior of light-driven conformation that changes promote transmembrane proton transport is to be stated. The way by which a conformation change facilitates the proton transport in molecular terms is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The process of transferring the protons against
Bacteriorhodopsin is known light-driven ion-pumping rhodopsins. The transfer of proton from the intracellular region to extracellular region takes place with the help of bacteriorhodopsin.
