All-Trans Retinol in Rod Photoreceptor Outer Segments Moves Unrestrictedly by Passive Diffusion

The visual pigment protein of vertebrate rod photoreceptors, rhodopsin, contains an 11-cis retinyl moiety that is isomerized to all-trans upon light absorption. Subsequently, all-trans retinal is released from the protein and reduced to all-trans retinol, the first step in the recycling of rhodopsin...
