Thesis
Single molecule studies of seven transmembrane domain proteins
- Abstract:
-
This work aimed at studying biophysical properties of two membrane proteins, one of potential nanotechnological use, bacteriorhodopsin, and one potential drug target, the NTS1 neurotensin receptor, at the single molecule scale.
Bacteriorhodopsin (BR) is the only protein in the purple membrane (PM) of the halophilic organism Halobacterium salinarium. It is a light-driven proton pump converting light into a transmembrane proton gradient through isomerization of its retinal c...
