Low aqueous solubility of 11-cis-retinal limits the rate of pigment formation and dark adaptation in salamander rods

We report experiments designed to test the hypothesis that the aqueous solubility of 11-cis-retinoids plays a significant role in the rate of visual pigment regeneration. Therefore, we have compared the aqueous solubility and the partition coefficients in photoreceptor membranes of native 11-cis-ret...
