Expression analysis of microbial rhodopsin-like genes in Guillardia theta.
The Cryptomonad Guillardia theta has 42 genes encoding microbial rhodopsin-like proteins in their genomes. Light-driven ion-pump activity has been reported for some rhodopsins based on heterologous E. coli or mammalian cell expression systems. However, neither their physiological roles nor the expre...
