Publik beskrivning
The molecular model shows the structure of the protein bacteriorhodopsin, which was discovered by Richard Henderson.

Bacteriorhodopsin is embedded in the bacterium’s cell membrane. Its function is to pump hydrogen ions from the inside to the outside of the membrane.

Richard Henderson donated the model and the map to the Nobel Prize Museum in 2017.
