Vertebrate ultraviolet visual pigments: Protonation of the retinylidene Schiff base and a counterion switch during photoactivation

For visual pigments, a covalent bond between the ligand (11-cis-retinal) and receptor (opsin) is crucial to spectral tuning and photoactivation. All photoreceptors have retinal bound via a Schiff base (SB) linkage, but only UV-sensitive cone pigments have this moiety unprotonated in the dark. We inv...
