Biochemische und biophysikalische Charakterisierung von Rhodopsin-Guanylylzyklasen [PDF]
, 2018 Rhodopsin-Guanylylzyklasen (RhGC) sind einzigartige Photorezeptoren, die kürzlich in Pilzen der Abteilung Blastocladiomycota entdeckt wurden [1]. RhGCs gehören zu den Enzym-Rhodopsinen und die Licht-sensitive mikrobielle Rhodopsin Domäne ist kovalent mit

Rhodopsin expression level affects rod outer segment morphology and photoresponse kinetics. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The retinal rod outer segment is a sensory cilium that is specialized for the conversion of light into an electrical signal. Within the cilium, up to several thousand membranous disks contain as many as a billion copies of rhodopsin for efficient photon ...

Retinitis pigmentosa: A Case Report with Thr17Arg as a Novel Mutation in RHO Gene. [PDF]
Journal of Epigenetics, 2022 Background and Aim: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is the most common type of inherited progressive photoreceptor cells degeneration causing night blindness, progressive reduction of visual field, loss of retinal pigment epithelial function, and ultimately ...

A large geometric distortion in the first photointermediate of rhodopsin, determined by double-quantum solid-state NMR [PDF]
, 2012 Double-quantum magic-angle-spinning NMR experiments were performed on 11,12-C-13(2)-retinylidene-rhodopsin under illumination at low temperature, in order to characterize torsional angle changes at the C11-C12 photoisomerization site.

Isoelectric Focusing to Quantify Rhodopsin Phosphorylation in Mouse Retina
Bio-Protocol, 2019 Rhodopsin is a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) that mediates vision under dim light. Upon light exposure, rhodopsin is phosphorylated at multiple serine and threonine sites at its carboxyl-terminus by rhodopsin kinase (GRK1). This, in turn, reduces its

iScience, 2023 Summary: Photoreception requires amplification by mammalian rhodopsin through G protein activation, which requires a visual cycle. To achieve this in retinal gene therapy, we incorporated human rhodopsin cytoplasmic loops into Gloeobacter rhodopsin ...

Eye, 1998 Two-dimensional crystals of rhodopsin were studied to determine the arrangement of the transmembrane alpha helices. A combination of electron cryomicroscopy, image processing and electron crystallography was used to extract amplitudes and phases from images, and a three-dimensional map to a resolution of 7.5 A was calculated.

Prediction of Structure, Function, and Spectroscopic Properties of G-Protein-Coupled Receptors: Methods and Applications [PDF]
, 2004 G-protein-coupled receptors are of great pharmaceutical interest, comprising the majority of targets for currently marketed drugs. The theme of my thesis is the development of the structure prediction method, MembStruk, for the superfamily of G-protein ...

Abrupt onset of mutations in a developmentally regulated gene during terminal differentiation of post-mitotic photoreceptor neurons in mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 For sensitive detection of rare gene repair events in terminally differentiated photoreceptors, we generated a knockin mouse model by replacing one mouse rhodopsin allele with a form of the human rhodopsin gene that causes a severe, early-onset form of ...
