Many biological assays use antibodies to detect Rhodopsin, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with Rhodopsin in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop Rhodopsin antibodies...
We validate the specificity of these antibodies to Rhodopsin by testing them on tissues known to express RHO positively and negatively. Browse below to find the RHO antibody that suites your experiment. We have 100 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.
If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.
Photoreceptor required for image-forming vision at low light intensity (PubMed:8107847, PubMed:7846071). Required for photoreceptor cell viability after birth (PubMed:2215617, PubMed:12566452).
Light-induced isomerization of the chromophore 11-cis-retinal to all-trans-retinal triggers a conformational change that activates signaling via G-proteins (PubMed:8107847, PubMed:28524165, PubMed:26200343, PubMed:28753425). Subsequent receptor phosphorylation mediates displacement of the bound G- protein alpha subunit by the arrestin SAG and terminates signaling (PubMed:28524165, PubMed:26200343).
Rod shaped photoreceptor cells which mediate vision in dim light.
Subcellular Localizations
Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell projection, cilium, photoreceptor outer segment. Synthesized in the inner segment (IS) of rod photoreceptor cells before vectorial transport to disk membranes in the rod outer segment (OS) photosensory cilia.
