Inherent Chirality Dominates the Visible/Near-Ultraviolet CD Spectrum of Rhodopsin

The visible (α) and near-UV (β) CD bands of rhodopsin have been studied extensively, but their source(s) have never been definitively established. Do they result from the intrinsic chirality of the polyene chromophore of the protonated Schiff base of retinal (retPSB) or from the coupling of the tran...
