Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The purpose of our study was to determine whether arrestin residues previously predicted by computational modeling to interact with an aspartic acid substituted rhodopsin tail are actually involved in interactions with phospho-residues on the rhodopsin cytoplasmic tail. METHODS: We generated arrestin mutants with altered charges at predicted positions. These mutants were then tested for the ability to...
