Synthesis of 13-Acetoxy-13-desmethylretinal, Its Pigment Formation with Bacterioopsin, and Apparent Dark-Inactivating Effect on the Pigment
Seltzer, Stanley

The title compound was designed to test for the involvement of nucleophilic catalysis, presumably by aspartate-212, in the dark cis-trans isomerizations of retinal in bacteriorhodopsin. β-Ionylidenacetaldehyde was condensed with acetylacetaldehyde dimethy
13-Acetoxy-13-desmethylretinal: Synthesis, incorporation into bacteriorhodopsin, and its apparent inactivating effect

Bacteriorhodopsin, the protein pigment of the purple membrane light-driven proton pump, is a simple polypeptide chain of 248 amino acids. It traverses the membrane to form seven rods of high alpha-helical character. We report the synthesis and incorporati
