Abstrakt:	Rods and cones are photoreceptor neurons in the retina that are required for visual sensation in vertebrates, where proper protein localization and compartmentalization are critical for phototransduction and visual function. In human retinal diseases, improper protein transport to the outer segment (OS) or mislocalization of proteins to the inner segment (IS) could lead to impaired visual responses and photoreceptor cell degeneration, causing a loss of visual function. We showed involvement of an unconventional motor protein, MYO1C, in the proper localization of rhodopsin to the OS, where loss of MYO1C in a mammalian model caused mislocalization of rhodopsin to IS and cell bodies, leading to progressively severe retinal phenotypes. In this study, using modeling and docking analysis, we aimed to identify the protein-protein interaction sites between MYO1C and Rhodopsin to establish a hypothesis that a physical interaction between these proteins is necessary for the proper trafficking of rhodopsin and visual function.
