    Description: Extremely halophilic archaea contain retinal-binding integral membrane proteins called bacteriorhodopsins that function as light-driven proton pumps. So far, bacteriorhodopsins capable of generating a chemiosmotic membrane potential in response to light have been demonstrated only in halophilic archaea. We describe here a type of rhodopsin derived from bacteria that was discovered through genomic analyses of naturally occuring marine bacterioplankton. The bacterial rhodopsin was encoded in the genome of an uncultivated gamma-proteobacterium and shared highest amino acid sequence similarity with archaeal rhodopsins. The protein was functionally expressed in Escherichia coli and bound retinal to form an active, light-driven proton pump. The new rhodopsin exhibited a photochemical reaction cycle with intermediates and kinetics characteristic of archaeal proton-pumping rhodopsins. Our results demonstrate that archaeal-like rhodopsins are broadly distributed among different taxa, including members of the domain Bacteria. Our data also indicate that a previously unsuspected mode of bacterially mediated light-driven energy generation may commonly occur in oceanic surface waters worldwide.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Beja, O -- Aravind, L -- Koonin, E V -- Suzuki, M T -- Hadd, A -- Nguyen, L P -- Jovanovich, S B -- Gates, C M -- Feldman, R A -- Spudich, J L -- Spudich, E N -- DeLong, E F -- HG01775-02S1/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01GM27750/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2000 Sep 15;289(5486):1902-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute, Moss Landing, CA 95039-0628, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10988064" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: We report an atomic-resolution structure for a sensory member of the microbial rhodopsin family, the phototaxis receptor sensory rhodopsin II (NpSRII), which mediates blue-light avoidance by the haloarchaeon Natronobacterium pharaonis. The 2.4 angstrom structure reveals features responsible for the 70- to 80-nanometer blue shift of its absorption maximum relative to those of haloarchaeal transport rhodopsins, as well as structural differences due to its sensory, as opposed to transport, function. Multiple factors appear to account for the spectral tuning difference with respect to bacteriorhodopsin: (i) repositioning of the guanidinium group of arginine 72, a residue that interacts with the counterion to the retinylidene protonated Schiff base; (ii) rearrangement of the protein near the retinal ring; and (iii) changes in tilt and slant of the retinal polyene chain. Inspection of the surface topography reveals an exposed polar residue, tyrosine 199, not present in bacteriorhodopsin, in the middle of the membrane bilayer. We propose that this residue interacts with the adjacent helices of the cognate NpSRII transducer NpHtrII.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Luecke, H -- Schobert, B -- Lanyi, J K -- Spudich, E N -- Spudich, J L -- R01-GM27750/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01-GM29498/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01-GM59970/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Aug 24;293(5534):1499-503.

    Description: Microbial sensory rhodopsins are a family of membrane-embedded photoreceptors in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Structures of archaeal rhodopsins, which function as light-driven ion pumps or photosensors, have been reported. We present the structure of a eubacterial rhodopsin, which differs from those of previously characterized archaeal rhodopsins in its chromophore and cytoplasmic-side portions. Anabaena sensory rhodopsin exhibits light-induced interconversion between stable 13-cis and all-trans states of the retinylidene protein. The ratio of its cis and trans chromophore forms depends on the wavelength of illumination, thus providing a mechanism for a single protein to signal the color of light, for example, to regulate color-sensitive processes such as chromatic adaptation in photosynthesis. Its cytoplasmic half channel, highly hydrophobic in the archaeal rhodopsins, contains numerous hydrophilic residues networked by water molecules, providing a connection from the photoactive site to the cytoplasmic surface believed to interact with the receptor's soluble 14-kilodalton transducer.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Vogeley, Lutz -- Sineshchekov, Oleg A -- Trivedi, Vishwa D -- Sasaki, Jun -- Spudich, John L -- Luecke, Hartmut -- R01-GM067808/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01-GM59970/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R37-GM27750/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Nov 19;306(5700):1390-3.

    Description: Light-gated rhodopsin cation channels from chlorophyte algae have transformed neuroscience research through their use as membrane-depolarizing optogenetic tools for targeted photoactivation of neuron firing. Photosuppression of neuronal action potentials has been limited by the lack of equally efficient tools for membrane hyperpolarization. We describe anion channel rhodopsins (ACRs), a family of light-gated anion channels from cryptophyte algae that provide highly sensitive and efficient membrane hyperpolarization and neuronal silencing through light-gated chloride conduction. ACRs strictly conducted anions, completely excluding protons and larger cations, and hyperpolarized the membrane of cultured animal cells with much faster kinetics at less than one-thousandth of the light intensity required by the most efficient currently available optogenetic proteins. Natural ACRs provide optogenetic inhibition tools with unprecedented light sensitivity and temporal precision.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4764398/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4764398/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Govorunova, Elena G -- Sineshchekov, Oleg A -- Janz, Roger -- Liu, Xiaoqin -- Spudich, John L -- R01 GM027750/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01GM027750/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R21MH098288/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- S10RR022531/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2015 Aug 7;349(6248):647-50. doi: 10.1126/science.aaa7484.

    Notes: Summary Three retinal-containing pigments have been detected inHalobacterium halobium membranes: bacteriorhodopsin (bR), halorhodopsin (hR), and slow-cycling rhodopsin (sR). The first two hyperpolarize the cell membrane by electrogenic transport of H+ and Cl−, respectively. The third pigment, sR, may be a photosensory receptor since mutants lacking bR and hR retain their retinal-dependent phototaxis responses. We monitored light-induced changes in fluorescence of several voltage-sensitive dyes in cells and membrane vesicles. Red light-induced potential changes generated by bR and hR were similar to signals described previously. Signals generated by hR could be identified using four criteria: wavelength dependence, Cl− dependence, shunting by valinomycin and K+, and the absence of these signals in hR-deficient mutants. The absence (detection limit ∼0.5 mV) of hyperpolarization signals in bR−hR−sR+ vesicles and cells shows that sR photochemical reactions are nonelectrogenic. Two signals independent of bR and hR were measured: blue light caused a decrease and red light an increase in dye fluorescence. Both signals appear to derive from sR on the basis of their retinal-dependence and action spectra. In a retinal-deficient mutant strain (Flx3R), both sR signals appeared after addition of all-trans retinal. In this strain retinal also restores phototaxis sensitivity within the same time scale. The retinal concentration dependence for all four parameters monitored—the attractant (red) and repellent (blue) phototaxis, and the red light and blue light-induced fluorescence signals—is the same. This correlation is consistent with the hypothesis that both attractant and repellent responses are mediated by sR, as suggested by Bogomolni and Spudich (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA.79:6250–6254 (1982)).
