Isomerization of all-trans-retinol to cis-retinols in bovine retinal pigment epithelial cells: dependence on the specificity of retinoid-binding proteins.
- J. McBee, V. Kuksa, +5 authors K. Palczewski
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Biochemistry
- 19 September 2000
In the retinal rod and cone photoreceptors, light photoactivates rhodopsin or cone visual pigments by converting 11-cis-retinal to all-trans-retinal, the process that ultimately results in… Expand
The two-pathway model for the catch-slip transition in biological adhesion.
- Yuriy V. Pereverzev, O. Prezhdo, M. Forero, E. Sokurenko, W. Thomas
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Biophysical journal
- 1 September 2005
Some recently studied biological noncovalent bonds have shown increased lifetime when stretched by mechanical force. In each case these counterintuitive "catch-bonds" have transitioned into ordinary… Expand
Guest-Host Cooperativity in Organic Materials Greatly Enhances the Nonlinear Optical Response
