Retinal G protein coupled receptor

Function

RGR-opsin is a member of the rhodopsin-like receptor subfamily of GPCR. Like other opsins which bind retinaldehyde, it contains a conserved lysine residue in the seventh transmembrane domain.[7][8] RGR-opsin preferentially binds all-trans-retinal,[8] which is the dominant form in the dark adapted retina,upon light exposure it is isomerized to 11-cis-retinal.[9] Therefore, RGR-opsin presumably acts as a photoisomerase to convert all-trans-retinal to 11-cis-retinal, similar to retinochrome in invertebrates. 11-cis-retinal is isomerized back within rhodopsin and the iodopsins in the rods and cones of the retina. RGR-opsin is exclusively expressed in tissue close to the rods and cones, the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and Müller cells.[7] RGR-opsin may be associated with autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (arRP and adRP, respectively). RGR-opsin comes in different isoforms produced by alternative splicing.[6]

Interactions

RGR-opsin has been shown to interact with KIAA1279.[10]

gollark: Idea: name some ransomware "rustc".
gollark: I should found the Rust Organization.
gollark: Apparently there was some success in finetuning GPT-2 for it.
gollark: Energy trips per time.
