Abstract excerpt
Sensory rhodopsin II (NpSRII) is a phototaxis receptor of Natronomonas pharaonis that performs its function in complex with its cognate transducer (NpHtrII). Upon light activation NpSRII triggers by means of NpHtrII a signal transduction chain homologous to the two component system in eubacterial chemotaxis. The D75N mutant of NpSRII, which lacks the blue-shifted M intermediate and therefore exhibits a...
