| Abstract | inverse of the background intensity that desensitized by 0.3 log units. underwent the same fractional change when the rhodopsin concentration was changed. Reversible reductions in Rh,, were achieved by orange irradiation during a brief increase of extraceilular pH from 7.5 to 10. This procedure would be unlikely to produce similar concentration changes in a hypothetical intracellular pigment because the concurrent change in intracellular pH was only 0.45 pH units. Assuming that light-adaptation is mediated by release of Ca” from an intracellular store. these results imply that an intracellular transmitter is needed to couple Rh,,,, to the intracellular store. |
