Target Details for RGR

Target: RGR (Retinal G Protein Coupled Receptor (RGR))

Alternative Name: RGR

Background: Rabbit Anti-RGR Polyclonal Antibody,RGR, RPE-retinal G protein-coupled receptor,RGR (retinal G protein coupled receptor) encodes a putative retinal G-protein coupled receptor. RGR is a member of the opsin subfamily of the 7 transmembrane, G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. Like other opsins which bind retinaldehyde, it contains a conserved lysine residue in the seventh transmembrane domain. The protein acts as a photoisomerase to catalyze the conversion of all-trans-retinal to 11-cis-retinal. The reverse isomerization occurs with rhodopsin in retinal photoreceptor cells. The protein is exclusively expressed in tissue adjacent to retinal photoreceptor cells, the retinal pigment epithelium and Mueller cells. RGR may be associated with autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (arRP and adRP, respectively). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.,RPE-retinal G protein-coupled receptor
