Structure determination of the cyclohexene ring of retinal in bacteriorhodopsin by solid-state deuterium NMR.
The orientation and conformation of retinal within bacteriorhodopsin of the purple membrane of Halobacterium halobium was established by solid-state deuterium NMR spectroscopy, through the determination of individual chemical bond vectors. The chromophore ([2,4,4,16,16,17,17,17,18,18-2H11]retinal) w...
