Kinetics of rhodopsin deactivation and its role in regulating recovery and reproducibility of rod photoresponse.
The single photon response (SPR) in vertebrate phototransduction is regulated by the dynamics of R* during its lifetime, including the random number of phosphorylations, the catalytic activity and the random sojourn time at each phosphorylation level. Because of this randomness the electrical respon...
