1963 T. Yoshizawa & G. Wald in Nature 30 Mar. 1280/1 The intermediate was shown to be stable to about −140°, above which it forms lumirhodopsin. We shall call it pre-lumirhodopsin.
1979 Philos. Trans. (Royal Soc.) A. 293 251 The earliest species observed in the sequence, prelumirhodopsin, was unique among the intermediates in that it was the only one which had an absorption maximum shifted to the red..of normal dark-adapted rhodopsin.
