== Structural highlights == | |||
Br is composed of 6 α-helical elements each containing a retinal molecule. The retinal changes its ground state conformation upon binding of a proton, causing the Br to change conformation to the activated state and pump the proton. <scene name='46/463242/Cv/6'>The retinal interacts predominantly with hydrophobic and aromatic residues</scene> <ref>PMID:19603754</ref> ({{Template:ColorKey_Hydrophobic}}, {{Template:ColorKey_Polar}}). | |||
