  • Title: Incorporation of photoreceptor membrane into a multilamellar film.
    Author: Rothschild KJ, Rosen KM, Clark NA.
    Journal: Biophys J; 1980 Jul; 31(1):45-52. PubMed ID: 7272432.
    Abstract:
    Multilamellar arrays of photoreceptor membrane up to 50 micrometer thick have been produced using a new method. Rhodopsin chromophore orientation in the films was studied using optical linear dichroism. The rhodopsin appears to be structurally intact and capable of photobleaching and regeneration. The production of biologically active liquid-crystal films offers a promising new approach to the study of biomembranes.
