Rhodopsin

More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: A purplish-red, light-sensitive pigment found in RETINAL ROD CELLS of most vertebrates. It is a complex consisting of a molecule of ROD OPSIN and a molecule of 11-cis retinal (RETINALDEHYDE). Rhodopsin exhibits peak absorption wavelength at about 500 nm.  do not confuse with ROD OPSINS or microbial rhodopsins (BACTERIORHODOPSINS)    Other names Visual Purple
