Mutation-independent treatment of autosomal dominant Retinitis Pigmentosa (adRP)

open access: yes, 2010
Viral-mediated gene therapy holds great promise for the treatment of severe inherited retinal diseases, such as Retintitis Pigmentosa (RP), which is caused by mutations in genes preferentially expressed in photoreceptor cells. The availability of vectors

Robust Endoplasmic Reticulum-Associated Degradation of Rhodopsin Precedes Retinal Degeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rhodopsin is a G protein-coupled receptor essential for vision and rod photoreceptor viability. Disease-associated rhodopsin mutations, such as P23H rhodopsin, cause rhodopsin protein misfolding and trigger endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, activating ...

Eye Development in Sepia officinalis Embryo: What the Uncommon Gene Expression Profiles Tell Us about Eye Evolution

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
In metazoans, there is a remarkable diversity of photosensitive structures; their shapes, physiology, optical properties, and development are different.

Nano‐Gs‐Protein Peptidomimetika: Rationales Design von Peptiden, die vom C‐Terminus von Gα abgeleitet sind und Schlüsselkomponenten der Gs‐β2AR‐Wechselwirkungen nachahmen

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 24, 8 June 2026.
G Protein‐gekoppelte Rezeptoren (GPCRs) sind wichtige therapeutische Zielstrukturen. Die Modulation der GPCR‐Aktivität über intrazelluläre Bindungsstellen gewinnt zunehmend an Bedeutung. Ein strukturell und computergestützter Ansatz ermöglichte die Entwicklung kleiner, vom G Protein abgeleiteter Peptidomimetika, die gezielt an die intrazelluläre ...

Different amino acid substitutions at the same position in rhodopsin lead to distinct phenotypes

open access: yes, 2006
PURPOSE: Identification of a novel rhodopsin mutation in a family with retinitis pigmentosa and comparison of the clinical phenotype to a known mutation at the same amino acid position.

Nano‐Gs Protein Peptidomimetics: Rational Design of Gα C‐Terminus‐Derived Peptides Mimicking Key Components of Gs‐β2AR Interactions

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 65, Issue 24, 8 June 2026.
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are major therapeutic targets. Modulating GPCR activity through intracellular sites is evolving. A structure‐ and computation‐assisted approach generated small G protein‐derived peptidomimetics targeting the intracellular binding crevice of the β2 adrenergic receptor mimicking features of the full G protein.

dPob/EMC is essential for biosynthesis of rhodopsin and other multi-pass membrane proteins in Drosophila photoreceptors

open access: yeseLife, 2015
In eukaryotes, most integral membrane proteins are synthesized, integrated into the membrane, and folded properly in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Wave Mechanics of Ciliary Proteins: Quantum‐Enabled Sensing and Energy Transfer in the “Cellular Antenna”

open access: yesAggregate, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
This review surveys eukaryotic cilia as putative quantum‐enabled sensory and regulatory centers. It highlights their multifaceted roles in the cell, focuses on the nontrivial roles of quantum mechanics in their membrane and cytoskeletal proteins, and introduces the essential building blocks enabling quantum properties to survive in the warm, wet, and ...

Rhodopsin was expressed in NHEKs.

open access: yes, 2013
(A) NHEKs were transiently transfected with pcDNA3.1 empty vector (left lane) or rhodopsin expression vector (right lane) for 48 hr and then analyzed by Western blot.
