摘要

Rhodopsin is palmitylated at two cysteine residues in its carboxyl terminal region.We have lookednat the effects of palmitylation on the molecular interactions formed by rhodopsin using single-molecule forcenspectroscopy and the function of rhodopsin using both in vitro and in vivo approaches. A knockin mousenmodel expressing palmitate-deficient rhodopsin was used for live animal in vivo studies and to obtain nativentissue samples for in vitro assays. We specifically looked at the effects of palmitylation on the chromophore-nbinding pocket, interactions of rhodopsin with transducin, andmolecular interactions stabilizing the receptornstructure. The structure of rhodopsin is largely unperturbed by the absence of palmitate linkage. The bindingnpocket for the chromophore 11-cis-retinal is minimally altered as palmitate-deficient rhodopsin exhibited thensame absorbance spectrum as wild-type rhodopsin. Similarly, the rate of release of all-trans-retinal after lightnactivation was the same both in the presence and absence of palmitylation. Significant differences werenobserved in the rate of transducin activation by rhodopsin and in the force required to unfold the last stablenstructural segment in rhodopsin at its carboxyl terminal end. A 1.3-fold reduction in the rate of transducinnactivation by rhodopsin was observed in the absence of palmitylation. Single-molecule force spectroscopynrevealed a 2.1-fold reduction in the normalized force required to unfold the carboxyl terminal end ofnrhodopsin. The absence of palmitylation in rhodopsin therefore destabilizes the molecular interactionsnformed in the carboxyl terminal end of the receptor, which appears to hinder the activation of transducin bynlight-activated rhodopsin
