epitope corresponding to amino acids 71-140 mapping near the N-terminus of peropsin of human origin
Modification Notes
The opsins are important proteins in the visual/irradiance detection cycle where they utilise a retinaldehyde chromophore in their photoisomerase role. Visual pigment-like receptor peropsin, also designated retinal pigment epithelium-derived rhodopsin homologue (RRH), belongs to the opsin subfamily of the larger G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. Peropsin is an integral membrane protein that is crucial to retinal pigment epithelial physiology. It monitors the concentration of retinoids or detects light directly. Peropsin is detected exclusively in the eye, where it localizes to the microvilli surrounding the photoreceptor outer segments of the retinal pigment epithelium.
