The protein Bovine Rhodopsin is a photoreceptor that aids in the sensory perception of light stimulus in environments with low light intensity. They are found in the eyes of many organisms, specifically in the tightly packed disks that compose the outer segment of the retina's photoreceptive rod cells. It features a seven-transmembrane helix core and is a G protein-coupled receptor embedded in the lipid bilayer of cell membranes that undergoes a structural change following photoactivation.

This Sandbox is Reserved from January through July 31, 2018 for use in the course HLSC322: Principles of Genetics and Genomics taught by Genevieve Houston-Ludlam at the University of Maryland, College Park, USA. This reservation includes Sandbox Reserved 1311 through Sandbox Reserved 1430.
To get started:
  • Click the edit this page tab at the top. Save the page after each step, then edit it again.
  • Click the 3D button (when editing, above the wikitext box) to insert Jmol.
  • show the Scene authoring tools, create a molecular scene, and save it. Copy the green link into the page.
  • Add a description of your scene. Use the buttons above the wikitext box for bold, italics, links, headlines, etc.
