Time-resolved x-ray diffraction study of photostimulated purple membrane

R D Frankel et al. Biophys J. 1985 Mar.

Abstract

A nanosecond resolution laser-driven x-ray source has been used to perform a time-resolved, x-ray diffraction study of the purple membrane of the Halobacterium halobium. Alterations in diffraction patterns have been observed 1 ms after photostimulation, and are interpreted to show disorder of bacteriorhodopsin packing in the plane of the membrane with little bacteriorhodopsin structural change.
