Brings together key new results of interdisciplinary collaborationsamong various research fields on rhodopsin including thephotoreceptive mechanism of rhodopsins, the molecular mechanism ofthe visual transduction process, visual processes in the retina andother transduction processes in the retina and brain.
The structures of the rhodopsin molecule are studied in the fieldsof protein chemistry, molecular biology, organic chemistry andstructural biology; the ultra fast reactions of the retinal proteinare studied in physics, biophysics, physical chemistry, organicchemistry and photobiology; the phototransduction in retinalproteins and visual cells are studied in biophysics, biochemistry,biophysical chemistry and photobiology; and the localization in thetissues is studied in anatomy and histochemistry. The diversity ofvisual systems in various animals is studied in zoology andcomparative biochemistry.
