Ser262 determines the chloride-dependent colour tuning of a new halorhodopsin from Haloquadratum walsbyi
Light is an important environmental signal for all organisms on earth because it is essential for physiological signalling and the regulation of most biological systems. Halophiles found in salt-saturated ponds encode various archaeal rhodopsins and thereby harvest various wavelengths of light eithe...
