TL;DR: High-speed atomic force microscopy is used to directly observe the oligomeric states in the lipid membrane of various microbial rhodopsins found within eubacteria to archaea, demonstrating that the stoichiometry of the fundamental oligomer of microbial r Rhodopsins strongly correlate with the phylogenetic tree.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The 2.4-Å-resolution structure of HeR from an uncultured Thermoplasmatales archaeon SG8-52-1 shows that it adopts a similar fold to that of type I rhodopsin—despite the low sequence identity—but there are also several marked differences that provide insights into heliorhodopin function.
Journal ArticleDOI
High Thermal Stability of Oligomeric Assemblies of Thermophilic Rhodopsin in a Lipid Environment
Tomomi Shionoya,Misao Mizuno,Takashi Tsukamoto,Kento Ikeda,Hayato Seki,Keiichi Kojima,Mikihiro Shibata,Izuru Kawamura,Yuki Sudo,Yasuhisa Mizutani +9 more
TL;DR: The present study revealed the high thermal stability of oligomeric assemblies of TR in the lipid environment and suggested the importance of using TR embedded in lipid membrane for elucidation of its functional mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circadian Clock Genes Regulate Temperature-Dependent Diapause Induction in Silkworm Bombyx mori
Satoshi Homma,Akihisa Murata,Masato Ikegami,Masakazu Kobayashi,Mikiko Yamazaki,Kento Ikeda,Takaaki Daimon,Hideharu Numata,Akira Mizoguchi,Kunihiro Shiomi +9 more
TL;DR: In this article , the role of the clock genes in temperature-dependent diapause induction of domestic silkworms was investigated and the results showed that clock genes act upstream of cerebral γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic and di-apause hormone signaling pathways.
