Abstract

The light-driven energy-converting system of Halobacterium halobium is the simplest biological energy converter known so far; consequently this bacterium has become a prime object of research in the field of bioenergetics. Experimental data on light-induced ion transport published recently are summarized and explained on the basis of this system.
