Identification of small-molecule allosteric modulators that act as enhancers/disrupters of rhodopsin oligomerization

The elongated cilia of the outer segment of rod and cone photoreceptor cells can contain concentrations of visual pigments of up to 5 mM. The rod visual pigments, G protein–coupled receptors called rhodopsins, have a propensity to self-aggregate, a property conserved among many G protein–coupled rec...
