Iodopsin, a dominant cone pigment in a chicken retina, has an absorption spectrum in longer wavelength region than rhodopsin. To account for this red-shift of iodopsin, we had proposed a structural model from retinal analogue experiments, in which iodopsin would have a relatively long distance between the protonated Schiff base nitrogen and the counterion. This was confirmed by a resonance Raman spectroscopy. The photochemical properties of iodopsin were studied and compared with those of rhodopsin, which revealed the following differences. The regeneration rate of iodopsin with 11-cis-retinal was 240 times faster than rhodopsin. Meta-iodopsin II, the signalling state of iodopsin, decayed about 100 times faster than meta-rhodopsin II. The Km value of meta-iodopsin II and rhodopsin kinase was lower than meta-rhodopsin II. These results are in consistent with rapid adaptation and low photosensitivity of cones relative to those of rods.
