Vitamin A palmitate is not metabolized to cis-retinaldehydes in giant WT-HEK293S cells. Giant cells were regenerated with 50 μM Vitamin A (A) or 50 μM Vitamin A palmitate (B) overnight at 4°C in darkness and ERCs recorded upon the first 500-nm flash the following day. Membrane capacitances of the representative cells are indicated. Responses shown are representative of a larger population of Vitamin A palmitate–regenerated cells (n = 5).
