| Abstract | In an attempt to establish a relationship between proton pumping and the photocycle intermediates of bacteriorhodopsin, we have studied the effects of pH and temperature on flash-induced proton pumping and the photointermediates O640 and M412. The relative quantum yield of flash-induced proton pumping is both pH and temperature dependent. It is high in the acid pH range and at low temperatures but decreases in the basic pH range and at high temperatures. The decay of M412 is biphasic. The amplitude of the slowly decaying component (Ms) was found to be pH dependent with a pK similar to that of the delta pH. The pH dependence of the fast-decaying component (Mf) is opposite to that of Ms and delta pH. Like that of Ms, the amplitude of O640 is high in the acid pH range, but unlike the amplitude of Ms, it declines very rapidly at pHs greater than 6.5; the amplitude of O640 becomes zero around pH 8. The temperature dependence of the amplitude of Ms was found to be similar to that of delta pH, being high at low temperatures and low in the high-temperature range. The temperature dependence of Mf and O640 is opposite to that of delta pH and Ms. Whereas, O640 and Ms seem to be likely candidates (from the pH dependence) for coupling between proton pumping and the photocycle, Ms is more likely because (i) the relative quantum yield of both Ms and delta pH seem not to go to zero at higher pHs and (ii) Ms and delta pH have similar temperature dependence. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
