Structural Studies of Metarhodopsin II, the Activated Form of the G-Protein Coupled Receptor, Rhodopsin

The structural changes that accompany activation of a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) are not well understood. To better understand the activation of rhodopsin, the GPCR responsible for visual transduction, we report studies on the three-dimensional structure for the activated state of this recept...
