Rapid formation of all-trans retinol after bleaching in frog and mouse rod photoreceptor outer segments

All-trans retinol is formed in the outer segments of vertebrate rod photoreceptors from the reduction of the all-trans retinal released by photoactivated rhodopsin. The reduction requires NADPH and is therefore dependent on metabolic input. In metabolically intact photoreceptors, a large increase in...
