" /> retinal pigments - CISMeF





Preferred Label : retinal pigments;

MeSH definition : Photosensitive protein complexes of varied light absorption properties which are expressed in the PHOTORECEPTOR CELLS. They are OPSINS conjugated with VITAMIN A-based chromophores. Chromophores capture photons of light, leading to the activation of opsins and a biochemical cascade that ultimately excites the photoreceptor cells.;

MeSH synonym : photoreceptor pigments, retinal; pigments, retinal; visual pigments; pigments, visual; retinal photoreceptor pigments; pigments, retinal photoreceptor; Retinal Pigment; Pigment, Retinal; Retinal Photoreceptor Pigment; Photoreceptor Pigment, Retinal; Pigment, Retinal Photoreceptor; Visual Pigment; Pigment, Visual;

MeSH annotation : not for deposition of pigments in the retina ( RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA);

Is substance : O;
