When 11-cis retinal absorbs a photon of light, it isomerizes to form all-trans retinal beginning the phototransduction cycle, which is the basis for mammalian vision. A G121L mutation in opsin allows 11-cis retinal to bind as a partial agonist and activate rhodopsin in the absence of light. In a moth model of carotenoid deficiency-induced low visual sensitivity, 11-cis retinal application to compound eyes restored visual sensitivity almost completely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eSafety \u0026amp; Regulatory\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"bhp-warning-box\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor Research Use Only (RUO).\u003c\/strong\u003e Not for therapeutic, diagnostic, or clinical use.
