Rhodopsin, a prototypic G protein-coupled receptor responsible for absorption of photons in retinal rod photoreceptor cells, was selectively extracted from bovine rod outer segment membranes, employing mixed micelles of nonyl beta-d-glucoside and heptanetriol. Highly purified rhodopsin was crystallized from solutions
