Figure 9.
A model for positive cooperativity Gt activation of rhodopsin oligomers.(A) Structure of rhodopsin dimer (PDG accession no. 6OFJ) showing contacts between protomers as dashed yellow lines. (B) View of EH2 domain and rhodopsin as in Fig. 5 A showing the rotation required for H8 to approximate the position of the αC helix of EH2. (C) Model showing how rotation of H8 in one rhodopsin protomer would affect rotation of H8 in other protomer.
