Anti-OPN5 Antibody Picoband® FITC Conjugated

Opsins are members of the guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein) -coupled receptor superfamily. This opsin gene is expressed in the eye, brain, testes, and spinal cord. This gene belongs to the seven-exon subfamily of mammalian opsin genes that includes peropsin (RRH) and retinal G protein coupled receptor (RGR) . Like these other seven-exon opsin genes, this family member may encode a protein with photoisomerase activity. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human OPN5. Human OPN5 shares 95.8% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse OPN5.
