Solid-state 2H NMR relaxation illuminates functional dynamics of retinal cofactor in membrane activation of rhodopsin [Biophysics and Computational Biology]
Solid-state 2H NMR relaxation illuminates functional dynamics of retinal cofactor in membrane activation of rhodopsin
Struts, A. V., Salgado, G. F. J., Brown, M. F....
Date: 2011-05-17
Rhodopsin is a canonical member of the family of G protein-coupled receptors, which transmit signals across cellular membranes and are linked to many drug interventions in humans. Here we show that solid-state 2H NMR relaxation allows investigation of light-induced changes in local ps–ns time scale motions of retinal bound to rhodopsin. Site-specific 2H labels were introduced into methyl groups of the...

Rhodopsin is the photoreceptor in vertebrate rod cells responsible for vision at low light intensities. The photoreactive chromophore in rhodopsin is 11-cis-retinal bound to the protein via a protonated Schiff base with Glu113 as the counterion. We have used the observed 13C NMR...
