Examples of chromophore

chromophore
These data show that CRALBP augments synthesis of chromophore precursors by DES1.

This is because the chromophore is unable to interact with a single photon alone.

Hence, cones must compete with saturated rods for limiting supplies of chromophore.
From the nature.com
There the chromophore is restored and returned to the photoreceptor cells.
From the sciencedaily.com
The idea again was to find a specific binding agent and coupling it to a chromophore.
From the scienceblogs.com
After a photon hits the cell, it excites one of the electrons inside the chromophore.
From the sciencedaily.com
It is covalently linked to Lys216 in the chromophore by Schiff base action.

An oxidizing bleach works by breaking the chemical bonds that make up the chromophore.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Albinsson's team used a single type of chromophore called YO as their energy mediator.

More examples
  • The chemical group that gives color to a molecule
  • A chromophore is the part of a molecule responsible for its color. The color arises when a molecule absorbs certain wavelengths of visible light and transmits or reflects others. ...
  • That part of the molecule of a dye responsible for its colour; (more generally) the group of atoms in a molecule in which the electronic transition responsible for a given spectral band is located
  • A naturally occurring pigment that selectively absorbs light at certain wavelengths. In tissue, it can be used to aid in targeting a laser surgery beam. See also Raman Spectroscopy.
  • The light absorbing part of a photopigment. The photopigments contained in photoreceptors consist of two components: an opsin bound to a chromophore. The chromophore in human (and all mammalian) photopigments is retinal (a form of vitamin A). ...
  • A portion of a molecule, usually with delocalized electrons, that absorbs and/or emits light in the visible range. This is the center associated with the color of a dye.
  • A molecule capable of absorbing light, mainly in the visible or UV range.
  • An atom, ion or molecule that absorbs radiation. May refer to a particular part or functional group of a molecule (for example, the carbonyl group or halogen atom).
  • Any group of atoms that absorbs light whether or not a color is thereby produced.
