Target Background

Function(From Uniprot)
Photoreceptor required for image-forming vision at low light intensity. While most salt water fish species use retinal as chromophore, most freshwater fish use 3-dehydroretinal, or a mixture of retinal and 3-dehydroretinal. Light-induced isomerization of 11-cis to all-trans retinal triggers a conformational change that activates signaling via G-proteins. Subsequent receptor phosphorylation mediates displacement of the bound G-protein alpha subunit by arrestin and terminates signaling.
Gene References into Functions
  1. The efficiency of CRISPR/Cas9 for gene targeting, coupled with the large number of mutations associated with retinitis pigmentosa, provided a backdrop for the rapid isolation of novel alleles in zebrafish that phenocopy disease. PMID:30210230
  2. overexpression of full-length rhodopsin or its cytoplasmic tail domain, but not of rhodopsin lacking the cytoplasmic tail, exacerbated rod degeneration in kif3a mutants, implying an important role of the cytoplasmic tail in rod degeneration. PMID:28855254
  3. expression as well as the protein localization of rhodopsin in the zebrafish from larval to adult stage were demonstrated; results demonstrated the involvement of rhodopsin in the zebrafish pineal gland physiology particularly in light capture during the zebrafish lifespan PMID:22306032
  4. Mitogen-associated protein kinase and protein kinase A regulate rhodopsin transcription through parallel signal transduction pathways PMID:17183589
