متن کاملInduces a Light-scati'ering Change in Halobacterium Halobium
When suspensions of Halobacterium halobium are exposed to bright light, the light-scattering properties of the bacteria change. This light-scattering response can produce a transmission decrease of about 1% throughout the red and nearinfrared region. The action spectrum for the light-scattering response appropriately matches the absorption spectrum of bacteriorhodopsin. The response is e l i m ...
متن کاملBacteriorhodopsin induces a light-scattering change in Halobacterium halobium
When suspensions of Halobacterium halobium are exposed to bright light, the light-scattering properties of the bacteria change. This light-scattering response can produce a transmission decrease of about 1% throughout the red and near-infrared region. The action spectrum for the light-scattering response appropriately matches the absorption spectrum of bacteriorhodopsin. The response is elimina...
متن کاملGenetic variability in Halobacterium halobium.
Halobacterium halobium exhibits an extraordinary degree of spontaneous variability. Mutants which are defective in the formation of gas vacuoles (vac) arise at a frequency of 10(-2). Other easily detectable phenotypes, like the synthesis of bacterioruberin (Rub) or the synthesis of retinal (Ret) and bacterio-opsin (Ops), the two components which form the purple membrane (Pum) of H. halobium, ar...
متن کاملIntegration of photosensory signals in Halobacterium halobium.
Stimulation of Halobacterium halobium through its sensory photosystems, PS 370 and PS 565, leads either to a prolonged or to a shortened interval between two reversals of the swimming direction of the cell, the attractant or repellent response. Stimuli are integrated to yield the same response regardless through which photosystem they are given. Simultaneously elicited attractant and repellent ...
