Abstract
In this issue of Chemistry & Biology, Srinivasan and colleagues describe their study of ligand-protein interactions in visual pigments. Comparing the more stable isomeric ligand 9-cis retinal to the physiologically occurring 11-cis retinal, they report differences in ligand specificity and opsin conformational stability not previously described for bleached rhodopsin.Entities:
