Abstract excerpt
The photocycle kinetics of the bacteriorhodopsin mutant Tyr-185----Phe has been investigated by UV-visible transient spectroscopy. Flash-induced spectral changes were measured from 100 ns to 500 ms using a gated optical multichannel analyzer on protein samples that were reconstituted in vesicles...
