Protein dynamics of a light-driven Na+ pump rhodopsin probed using a tryptophan residue near the retinal chromophore
Direct observation of protein structural changes during ion transport in ion pumps provides valuable insights into the mechanism of ion transport. In this study, we examined structural changes in the light-driven sodium ion (Na+) pump rhodopsin KR2 on the sub-millisecond time scale, corresponding wi...
