Light-induced conformational changes occurring at the cytosolic surface of rhodopsin were investigated by performing limited digestions of native and illuminated visual pigment with thermolysin, Arg-C endoproteinase, papain and
proteinase K
. A higher susceptibility of the extradiscal regions of the bleached pigment to the proteases were observed together with altered capacities of the digested bleached rhodopsins to activate the
cGMP phosphodiesterase
. The overall results strongly suggest that light induces conformational changes not only in the C-terminal end but also in the second and the third extradiscal loop of rhodopsin.
