A natural light-driven inward proton pump

A natural light-driven inward proton pump

Proton pumps that are driven by light to pump protons out of the cell are involved in the conversion of sunlight into proton motive force; pumps to drive protons in the other direction have been engineered. Here, the authors report the identification and characterisation of a naturally occurring inw...
