Descriptions Names[Advanced Search]

Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules). The selective, non-covalent, often stoichiometric, interaction of a molecule with one or more specific sites on another molecule. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with metarhodopsin, a transient intermediate produced upon irradiation of rhodopsin in the visual cycle and existing in two forms, metarhodopsins I and II. The latter dissociates to form opsin and all-trans retinal. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with an opsin, any of a group of hydrophobic, integral membrane glycoproteins located primarily in the disc membrane of rods or cones, involved in photoreception.
