| Abstract | Asolectin lipid vesicles containing halorhodopsin show light-induced acidification in the presence of proton ionophores. This effect is abolished by triphenyltin chloride, a chloride/hydroxyl antiporter, and is greatly diminished by valinomycin in the presence of potassium ions, which collapse the membrane potential. This indicates that halorhodopsin orients in the lipid vesicles preferentially inside out, pumping chloride into the extravesicular compartment. The absorption maximum of halorhodopsin in asolectin vesicles in 3 M NaCl is at 567 nm, and the action spectrum for the light-induced pH changes followed closely the absorption spectrum. Replacement of chloride by acetate or sulfate causes a shift in the absorption maximum to approximately equal to 559 nm and renders the pump inactive. The different photocycles of the two forms were used to show that 80% of the molecules have the extracellular side exposed to the vesicle interior and that the halide-binding site(s) associated with the spectral transition is accessible from the extracellular side of the molecule. The data presented demonstrate that the purified chromoprotein is the light-driven chloride pump in Halobacterium halobium. |

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.
