Vision starts when a photon isomerizes the 11-cis-retinylidene chromophore of rhodopsin to initiate phototransduction. The all-trans-retinylidene product is hydrolyzed and all-trans-retinal released, allowing rebinding of 11-cis-retinal to regenerate rhodopsin for sustained vision. Subsequently, all-trans-retinal is cleared, preventing aldehyde toxicity by reduction to all-trans-retinol. Defects in these metabolic processes could lead to severe retinopathies. Studying the biochemistry of key proteins responsible for these fundamental steps of vision in their native membrane environments has remained challenging. Using rapid quantitative chemical and analytical methods, we directly captured and quantified the kinetics and energetics of these essential biochemical processes occurring in native membranes. Our results shed light on the entire rhodopsin photocycle and chromophore regeneration and are broadly applicable to other retinylidene proteins. For sustained vision, photoactivated rhodopsin (Rho*) must undergo hydrolysis and release of all-trans-retinal, producing substrate for the visual cycle and apo-opsin available for regeneration with 11-cis-retinal. The kinetics of this hydrolysis has yet to be described for rhodopsin in its native membrane environment. We developed a method consisting of simultaneous denaturation and chromophore trapping by isopropanol/borohydride, followed by exhaustive protein digestion, complete extraction, and liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry. Using our method, we tracked Rho* hydrolysis, the subsequent formation of N-retinylidene-phosphatidylethanolamine (N-ret-PE) adducts with the released all-trans-retinal, and the reduction of all-trans-retinal to all-trans-retinol. We found that hydrolysis occurred faster in native membranes than in detergent micelles typically used to study membrane proteins. The activation energy of the hydrolysis in native membranes was determined to be 17.7 ± 2.4 kcal/mol. Our data support the interpretation that metarhodopsin II, the signaling state of rhodopsin, is the primary species undergoing hydrolysis and release of its all-trans-retinal. In the absence of NADPH, free all-trans-retinal reacts with phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), forming a substantial amount of N-ret-PE (∼40% of total all-trans-retinal at physiological pH), at a rate that is an order of magnitude faster than Rho* hydrolysis. However, N-ret-PE formation was highly attenuated by NADPH-dependent reduction of all-trans-retinal to all-trans-retinol. Neither N-ret-PE formation nor all-trans-retinal reduction affected the rate of hydrolysis of Rho*. Our study provides a comprehensive picture of the hydrolysis of Rho* and the release of all-trans-retinal and its reentry into the visual cycle, a process in which alteration can lead to severe retinopathies.
