Figure 4

PDE activation and single-photon responses of toad rods. Toad rod outer segment drawn to approximately the same scale as mouse rod in Fig. 2. A: Stochastic simulations of light-activated PDE after absorption of a single photon (black) together with the mean response (red), as in Fig. 2A. B: Simulations of single-photon responses with amplitude and time course similar to suction-electrode responses [5, 37]. Currents have been normalized to the circulating current in darkness.
