背景
Rhodopsin is a light-sensitive protein found in the photoreceptor cells of the retina, specifically in rod cells, which are responsible for vision in low-light conditions. It plays a crucial role in the process of vision by absorbing light and initiating a signaling cascade that ultimately converts light signals into electrical signals sent to the brain. Rhodopsin consists of a protein called opsin, bound to a chromophore called retinal, which changes shape when it absorbs light. This conformational change activates a series of molecular events that lead to visual perception. Rhodopsin's function is essential for night vision and the overall visual process.
