Function of Extracellular Loop 2 in Rhodopsin: Glutamic Acid 181 Modulates Stability and Absorption Wavelength of Metarhodopsin II

The second extracellular loop of rhodopsin folds back into the membrane-embedded domain of the receptor to form part of the binding pocket for the 11-cis-retinylidene chromophore. A carboxylic acid side chain from this loop, Glu181, points toward the center of the retinal polyene chain. We studied t...
