| - | Bacteriorhodopsin is an integral membrane protein that functions as a proton pump. It has a primary structure that includes 248 amino acids. The secondary structure is seen in the seven alpha helices and two beta strands that are antiparallel. The tertiary structure includes three domains and an alpha barrel motif. The quaternary structure has C3 symmetry and is a homotrimer with three subunits. | + | Bacteriorhodopsin is an integral membrane protein that functions as a proton pump.

| - | Bacteriorhodopsin functions as a proton pump that transports H+ across the gradient and is driven by green light. The protons are used to create ATP which is a vital part of the haloarchaea's survival. Once bacteriorhodopsin absorbs a photon, catalysis is triggered, causing a conformational shift from trans to cis, a release of a proton, and a transfer of a proton. The catalytic cycle includes 6 steps of isomerization, accessibility change, and ion transport ( | + | Bacteriorhodopsin functions as a proton pump that transports H+ across the gradient and is driven by green light.<ref>Lanyi, J.

| - | Without bacteriorhodopsin, the light would not be converted into the energy that drives the proton pump, making it much harder for bacteria cells to produce the ATP needed to function normally. Bacteriorhodopsin is also essential in helping the bacteria cells create a chemical gradient for sodium, and assists in creating the energy needed for the cell to rotate its flagella. The energy it helps create helps normal cell function, such as the transport of amino acids, occur. A lack of bacteriorhodopsin would be detrimental to these bacterial cells | + | Without bacteriorhodopsin, the light would not be converted into the energy that drives the proton pump, making it much harder for bacteria cells to produce the ATP needed to function normally.<ref>Stoeckenius, W.; Bogomolni, R.

| - | Halophilic archaea live in hypersaline environments such as salt lakes and are exposed to extremely strong sunlight. This increases the salinity so the haloarchaea depend on the proton gradient system through its photo-reactive proteins. Due to bacteriorhodopsin having low availability at a high price, studies have produced a BR recombinant protein called highly expressible bacteriorhodopsin (HEBR). HEBR may decrease the likelihood of cell proliferation and migration of lung cancer cells. | + | Halophilic archaea live in hypersaline environments such as salt lakes and are exposed to extremely strong sunlight.
