Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a progressive eye disease and the most common cause of blindness among the elderly. AMD is characterized by early atrophy of the choriocapillaris and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Although AMD is a multif

Vertebrate opsins in both photoreceptors and the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) have fundamental roles in the visual process. The visual pigments in photoreceptors are bound to 11-cis-retinal and are responsible for the initiation of visual excitat

The recent identification of nonvisual opsins has revealed an expanding family of vertebrate opsin genes. The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and Müller cells contain a blue and UV light-absorbing opsin, the RPE retinal G protein-coupled receptor (

The phototransduction process in cones has been proposed to involve a G protein that couples the signal from light-activated visual pigment to the effector cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase. Previously, we have identified and purified a G beta gamma compl

Transducin, the major photoreceptor guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein), is composed of three polypeptides: alpha, beta and gamma subunits. The transducin gamma subunit (T gamma) is expressed preferentially in photoreceptors. To study the
Human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells synthesize an extraneous splice isoform of retinal G protein-coupled receptor (RGR). In this study, we analyzed the exon-skipping variant of RGR (RGR-d) that is found in extracellular deposits. RPE-choroid

An extraneous exon-skipping mRNA encodes an altered form of a light-absorbing opsin in human retina and pigment epithelium (RPE). The predicted protein variant differs from full-length RPE-retinal G protein-coupled receptor (RGR) by having an in-fram

The human RGR gene encodes an opsin protein (retinal G protein-coupled receptor), which is expressed in Müller cells and the retinal pigment epithelium and is thought to play a role in the visual process. To investigate a possible linkage of the RGR

The visual process is initiated by the photoisomerization of 11-cis-retinal to all-trans- retinal. For sustained vision the 11-cis-chromophore must be regenerated from all-trans-retinal. This requires RPE65, a dominant retinal pigment epithelium prot

Light-dependent production of 11-cis-retinal by the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and normal regeneration of rhodopsin under photic conditions involve the RPE retinal G protein-coupled receptor (RGR) opsin. This microsomal opsin is bound to all-tr
