abstract = {The mutant T203V of the light driven chloride pump
halorhodopsin from Halobacterium salinarum was crystallized
and the X-ray structure was solved at 1.6 angstroms
resolution. The T203V structure turned out to be nearly
identical to the wild type protein with a root mean square
deviation of 0.43 angstroms for the carbon alpha atoms of
the protein backbone. Two chloride binding (CB) sites were
demonstrated by a substitution of chloride with bromide and
an analysis of anomalous difference Fourier maps. The CB1
site was found at the same position as in the wild type
structure. In addition, a second chloride binding site CB2
was identified around Q105 due to higher resolution in the
mutant crystal. As T203V showed a 10 times slower decay of
its photocycle intermediate L, this intermediate could be
trapped with an occupancy of $60\%$ upon illumination at
room temperature and subsequent cooling to 120 degrees K.
Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy clearly identified
the crystal to be trapped in the L1 intermediate state and
the X-ray structure was solved to 1.9 angstroms resolution.
In this intermediate, the chloride moved by 0.3 angstroms
within binding site CB1 as indicated by peaks in difference
Fourier density maps. The chloride in the second binding
site CB2 remained unchanged. Thus, intraproteinous chloride
translocation from the extracellular to the cytoplasmic part
of the protein must occur in reaction steps following the L1
intermediate in the catalytic cycle of halorhodopsin.},
