We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.
4kly
From Proteopedia
Crystal structure of a blue-light absorbing proteorhodopsin mutant D97N from HOT75
Function
[PRRB_PRB02] Light-driven proton pump. May have a regulatory rather than energy harvesting function, based on light-induced opening of proton channels, to modulate cell physiology depending on light intensity variations. Could be, therefore, a sensory rhodopsin, potentially associated with a transducer component.
About this Structure
4kly is a 5 chain structure with sequence from Gamma proteobacterium 'hot 75m4'. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
