Bacteriorhodopsin, artwork
Bacteriorhodopsin. Artwork of the molecular structure of bacteriorhodopsin, a protein found in primitive micro-organisms known as Archaea. At centre is cis-retinal (red, a form of vitamin A), surrounded by alpha helices (spirals) and polypeptide loops (loops at top and bottom). On either side are the membranes (yellow) of the cells in which the protein is present

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the intricate molecular structure of bacteriorhodopsin, a protein found in primitive micro-organisms known as Archaea. At the heart of this print lies cis-retinal, depicted in vibrant red hues, which is a form of vitamin A crucial to the functioning of this protein. Surrounding it are alpha helices, elegantly spiraling structures that contribute to the overall stability and shape of bacteriorhodopsin. The polypeptide loops positioned at the top and bottom add another layer of complexity to this mesmerizing illustration. These loops play a vital role in facilitating various interactions within the protein's structure. On either side of the central molecule, we observe yellow membranes representing cells where bacteriorhodopsin is present. These membranes serve as protective barriers while also providing an environment conducive for proper protein function. Through this remarkable piece of artistry, we delve into the realms of biology and chemistry simultaneously. It beautifully captures both structural intricacies and biochemical significance inherent in studying molecules like bacteriorhodopsin. With its fusion of scientific accuracy and aesthetic appeal, this print from Science Photo Library offers a glimpse into cellular biology on a microscopic scale. It serves as a testament to our ongoing exploration and understanding of life's building blocks – proteins – while showcasing their inherent beauty through artistic interpretation.
