Abstract
All-trans to 13-cis photoisomerization of the protonated retinal Schiff base (PRSB) chromophore is the primary step that triggers various biological functions of microbial rhodopsins. While this ultrafast primary process has been extensively studied, it has been recognized that the relevant excited-state relaxation dynamics differ significantly from one rhodopsin to another. To elucidate the origin of the complicated ultrafast dynamics of the primary process in microbial rhodopsins, we studied the excited-state dynamics of proteorhodopsin, its D97N mutant, and bacteriorhodopsin by femtosecond time-resolved absorption (TA) spectroscopy in a wide pH range. The TA data showed that their excited-state relaxation dynamics drastically change when pH approaches the pKa of the counterion residue of the PRSB chromophore in the ground state. This result reveals that the varied excited-state relaxation dynamics in different rhodopsins mainly originate from the difference of the ground-state heterogeneity (i.e., protonation/deprotonation of the PRSB counterion).

Abstract
The primary stages of the Exiguobacterium sibiricum rhodopsin (ESR) photocycle were investigated by femtosecond absorption laser spectroscopy in the spectral range of 400-900 nm with a time resolution of 25 fs. The dynamics of the ESR photoreaction were compared with the reactions of bacteriorhodopsin (bR) in purple membranes (bRPM) and in recombinant form (bRrec). The primary intermediates of the ESR photocycle were similar to intermediates I, J, and K in bacteriorhodopsin photoconversion. The CONTIN program was applied to analyze the characteristic times of the observed processes and to clarify the reaction scheme. A similar photoreaction pattern was observed for all studied retinal proteins, including two consecutive dynamic Stokes shift phases lasting ∼0.05 and ∼0.15 ps. The excited state decays through a femtosecond reactive pathway, leading to retinal isomerization and formation of product J, and a picosecond nonreactive pathway that leads only to the initial state. Retinal photoisomerization in ESR takes 0.69 ps, compared with 0.48 ps in bRPM and 0.74 ps in bRrec. The nonreactive excited state decay takes 5 ps in ESR and ∼3 ps in bR. We discuss the similarity of the primary reactions of ESR and other retinal proteins.

Abstract
Bacteriorhodopsin (bR) is a light-driven proton pump. The primary photochemical event upon light absorption is isomerization of the retinal chromophore. Here we used time-resolved crystallography at an X-ray free-electron laser to follow the structural changes in multiphoton-excited bR from 250 femtoseconds to 10 picoseconds. Quantum chemistry and ultrafast spectroscopy were used to identify a sequential two-photon absorption process, leading to excitation of a tryptophan residue flanking the retinal chromophore, as a first manifestation of multiphoton effects. We resolve distinct stages in the structural dynamics of the all-trans retinal in photoexcited bR to a highly twisted 13-cis conformation. Other active site sub-picosecond rearrangements include correlated vibrational motions of the electronically excited retinal chromophore, the surrounding amino acids and water molecules as well as their hydrogen bonding network. These results show that this extended photo-active network forms an electronically and vibrationally coupled system in bR, and most likely in all retinal proteins. Bacteriorhodopsin (bR) is a light-driven proton pump. Here the authors combine time-resolved crystallography at a free-electron laser, ultrafast spectroscopy and quantum chemistry to study the structural changes following multiphoton photoexcitation of bR and find that they occur within 300 fs not only in the light-absorbing chromophore but also in the surrounding protein.

Abstract
Anabaena sensory rhodopsin (ASR) is a particular microbial retinal protein for which light-adaptation leads to the ability to bind both the all-trans, 15-anti (AT) and the 13-cis, 15-syn (13C) isomers of the protonated Schiff base of retinal (PSBR). In the context of obtaining insight into the mechanisms by which retinal proteins catalyse the PSBR photo-isomerization reaction, ASR is a model system allowing to study, within the same protein, the protein-PSBR interactions for two different PSBR conformers at the same time. A detailed analysis of the vibrational spectra of AT and 13C, and their photo-products in wild-type ASR obtained through femtosecond (pump-) four-wave-mixing is reported for the first time, and compared to bacterio- and channelrhodopsin. As part of an extensive study of ASR mutants with blue-shifted absorption spectra, we present here a detailed computational analysis of the origin of the mutation-induced blue-shift of the absorption spectra, and identify electrostatic interactions as dominating steric effects that would entail a red-shift. The excited state lifetimes and isomerization reaction times (IRT) for the three mutants V112N, W76F, and L83Q are studied experimentally by femtosecond broadband transient absorption spectroscopy. Interestingly, in all three mutants, isomerization is accelerated for AT with respect to wild-type ASR, and this the more, the shorter the wavelength of maximum absorption. On the contrary, the 13C photo-reaction is slightly slowed down, leading to an inversion of the ESLs of AT and 13C, with respect to wt-ASR, in the blue-most absorbing mutant L83Q. Possible mechanisms for these mutation effects, and their steric and electrostatic origins are discussed.

Abstract
The interaction between the retinal protonated Schiff base (RPSB) and surrounding protein residues inside the retinal pocket is believed to play a major role in the ultrafast isomerization of the former. Coherent time-resolved vibrational spectroscopic techniques are applied to reveal the effect of changes in the protein architecture by point mutations (V112N and L83Q) close to the RPSB in Anabaena sensory rhodopsin (ASR). Our study reveals that such point mutations have a minor effect on the low-frequency (<400 cm-1) torsional modes but dramatically influence the ground-state vibrational Raman activity of the C14-H out-of-plane (HOOP) wag mode (800-820 cm-1). In mutated ASR, the increase of HOOP Raman activity in the ground state is experimentally observed for the all- trans RPSB, which has shorter excited-state lifetime than in wild-type ASR. This indicates that predistortion of the RPSB inside the mutated retinal pocket is a major factor in the acceleration of the isomerization rate.

Abstract
We report new experimental results on the ultrafast photo-isomerization of ASR - PSBR where, unlike other retinal proteins, point mutations lead to a 2-fold increase of the photo-isomerization speed for the all-trans isomer. Prominent low-frequency vibrational coherences are reported for both the excited and photo-product ground states.

Abstract
The ultrafast structural changes during the photoinduced isomerization of the retinal-protonated Schiff base (RPSB) is still a poorly understood aspect in the retinal's photochemistry. In this work, we apply pump-degenerate four-wave mixing (pump-DFWM) to all- trans retinal (ATR) and retinal Schiff bases (RSB) to resolve coherent high- and low-frequency vibrational signatures from excited electronic states. We show that the vibrational spectra of excited singlet states in these samples exhibit pronounced differences compared to the relaxed ground state. Pump-DFWM results indicate three major features for ATR and RSB. (i) Excited state vibrational spectra of ATR and RSB consist predominately of low-frequency modes in the energetic range 100-500 cm-1. (ii) Excited state vibrational spectra show distinct differences for excitation in specific regions of electronic transitions of excited state absorption and emission. (iii) Low-frequency modes in ATR and RSB are inducible during the entire lifetime of the excited electronic states. This latter effect points to a transient molecular structure that, following initial relaxation between different excited electronic states, does not change anymore over the lifetime of the finally populated excited electronic state.

Abstract
Discrepancies in the isomerization dynamics and quantum yields of the trans and cis retinal protonated Schiff base is a well-known issue in the context of retinal photochemistry. Anabaena Sensory Rhodopsin (ASR) is a microbial retinal protein that comprises a retinal chromophore in two ground state (GS) conformations: all-trans, 15-anti (AT) and 13-cis, 15-syn (13C). In this study, we applied impulsive vibrational spectroscopic techniques (DFWM, pump-DFWM and pump-IVS) to ASR to shed more light on how the structural changes take place in the excited state within the same protein environment. Our findings point to distinct features in the ground state structural conformations as well as to drastically different evolutions in the excited state manifold. The ground state vibrational spectra show stronger Raman activity of the C14-H out-of-plane wag (at about 805 cm-1) for the 13C isomer than that for the AT isomer, which hints at a pre-distortion of 13C in the ground state. Evolution of the Raman frequency after interaction with the actinic pulse shows a blue-shift for the C[double bond, length as m-dash]C stretching and CH3 rocking mode for both isomers. For AT, however, the blue-shift is not instantaneous as observed for the 13C isomer, rather it takes more than 200 fs to reach the maximum frequency shift. This frequency blue-shift is rationalized by a decrease in the effective conjugation length during the isomerization reaction, which further confirms a slower formation of the twisted state for the AT isomer and corroborates the presence of a barrier in the excited state trajectory previously predicted by quantum chemical calculations.

Control of molecular processes via adaptive feedback often yields highly structured laser pulses that have eluded physical explanation. By contrast, coherent control approaches propose physically transparent mechanisms but are not readily visible in experimental results. Here, an analysis of a condensed phase adaptive feedback control experiment on retinal isomerization shows that it manifests a quantum interference based coherent control mechanism: control via interfering resonances. The result promises deep insight into the physical basis for the adaptive feedback control of a broad class of bound state processes.

Femtosecond spectroscopic study of photochromic reactions of bacteriorhodopsin and visual rhodopsin. JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY. B, BIOLOGY 2016; 164:296-305. [PMID: 27723489 DOI: 10.1016/j.jphotobiol.2016.09.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2016] [Revised: 09/29/2016] [Accepted: 09/30/2016] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Photochromic ultrafast reactions of bacteriorhodopsin (H. salinarum) and bovine rhodopsin were conducted with a femtosecond two-pump probe pulse setup with the time resolution of 20-25fs. The dynamics of the forward and reverse photochemical reactions for both retinal-containing proteins was compared. It is demonstrated that when retinal-containing proteins are excited by femtosecond pulses, dynamics pattern of the vibrational coherent wave packets in the course of the reaction is different for bacteriorhodopsin and visual rhodopsin. As shown in these studies, the low-frequencies that form a wave packets experimentally observed in the dynamics of primary products formation as a result of retinal photoisomerization have different intensities and are clearer for bovine rhodopsin. Photo-reversible reactions for both retinal proteins were performed from the stage of the relatively stable photointermediates that appear within 3-5ps after the light pulse impact. It is demonstrated that the efficiency of the reverse phototransition K-form→bacteriorhodopsin is almost five-fold higher than that of the Batho-intermediate→visual rhodopsin phototransition. The results obtained indicate that in the course of evolution the intramolecular mechanism of the chromophore-protein interaction in visual rhodopsin becomes more perfect and specific. The decrease in the probability of the reverse chromophore photoisomerization (all-trans→11-cis retinal) in primary photo-induced rhodopsin products causes an increase in the efficiency of the photoreception process.

Abstract
We have developed the technique of population-controlled impulsive vibrational spectroscopy (PC-IVS) aimed at providing high-quality, background-free Raman spectra of excited electronic states and their dynamics. Our approach consists of a modified transient absorption experiment using an ultrashort (<10 fs) pump pulse with additional electronic excitation and control pulses. The latter allows for the experimental isolation of excited-state vibrational coherence and, hence, vibrational spectra. We illustrate the capabilities of PC-IVS by reporting the Raman spectra of well-established molecular systems such as the carotenoid astaxanthin and trans-stilbene and present the first excited-state Raman spectra of the retinal protonated Schiff base chromophore in solution. Our approach, illustrated here with impulsive vibrational spectroscopy, is equally applicable to transient and even multidimensional infrared and electronic spectroscopies to experimentally isolate spectroscopic signatures of interest.

Abstract
The photocycle and vibrational dynamics of bacteriorhodopsin in a lipid nanodisc microenvironment have been studied by steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopies. Linear absorption and circular dichroism indicate that the nanodiscs do not perturb the structure of the retinal binding pocket, while transient absorption and flash photolysis measurements show that the photocycle which underlies proton pumping is unchanged from that in the native purple membranes. Vibrational dynamics during the initial photointermediate formation are subsequently studied by ultrafast broadband transient absorption spectroscopy, where the low scattering afforded by the lipid nanodisc microenvironment allows for unambiguous assignment of ground and excited state nuclear dynamics through Fourier filtering of frequency regions of interest and subsequent time domain analysis of the retrieved vibrational dynamics. Canonical ground state oscillations corresponding to high frequency ethylenic and C-C stretches, methyl rocks, and hydrogen out-of-plane wags are retrieved, while large amplitude, short dephasing time vibrations are recovered predominantly in the frequency region associated with out-of-plane dynamics and low frequency torsional modes implicated in isomerization.

Abstract
How molecules convert light energy to perform a specific transformation is a fundamental question in photophysics. Ultrafast spectroscopy reveals the kinetics associated with electronic energy flow, but little is known about how absorbed photon energy drives nuclear motion. Here we used ultrabroadband transient absorption spectroscopy to monitor coherent vibrational energy flow after photoexcitation of the retinal chromophore. In the proton pump bacteriorhodopsin, we observed coherent activation of hydrogen-out-of-plane wagging and backbone torsional modes that were replaced by unreactive coordinates in the solution environment, concomitant with a deactivation of the reactive relaxation pathway.
