Immunogen :

Rho Antibody was produced in mice by repeated immunizations raised against bovine Rhodopsin.

Packing Type :

Dry Ice

Physical State :

Liquid (sterile filtered)

Purity and Specificity :

Anti-Rho Antibody was purified by Protein G chromatography. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with Rhodopsin from Mammals, Fish, Avian, Amphibians, and Shark based on 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Not Drosophila or other invertebrates. Cross-reactivity with Rhodopsin from other sources has not been determined. Signaling and GTPase research.

Target Species :

Bovine

Background :

Rhodopsin consists of the protein moiety opsin and a reversibly covalently bound cofactor, retinal. Opsin, a bundle of seven membrane embedded alpha-helices, binds retinal, a photoreactive chromophore, in a central pocket. In addition to being the pigment of the retina that is responsible for both the formation of the photoreceptor cells, its function is to specifically convey information stored in the specific geometry of the chormophore to the surface of the molecule upon light absorption. In the active state, rhodopsin activates transduction, a GTP binding protein. Once activated, transduction promotes the hydrolysis of cGMP by phosphodiesterase. Rhodopsin’s activity is believed to be shut off by its phosphorylation followed by binding of the soluble protein arrestin. Mutations in the rhodopsin gene lead to retinitis pigmentosa, which can be inherited as an autosomal dominant, an autosomal recessive or an X-linked recessive disorder.
