Photochromic polymer films based on a 14-F bacteriorhodopsin derivative.

Abstract excerpt

Spectral and kinetic characteristics were measured for polymer (gelatin) films based on 14-F bacteriorhodopsin (BR), both wild-type (WT) and D96N mutant, to study the peculiarities of photo-induced transformation of the samples. It was demonstrated earlier that incorporation of 14-F retinal into the apomembrane of both 14-F WT and 14-F D96N produces pigments with drastically different photo-induced behavior,...
