The rhodopsin-retinochrome system for retinal re-isomerization predates the origin of cephalopod eyes
BACKGROUND: The process of photoreception in most animals depends on the light induced isomerization of the chromophore retinal, bound to rhodopsin. To re-use retinal, the all-trans-retinal form needs to be re-isomerized to 11-cis-retinal, which can be achieved in different ways. In vertebrates, thi...
