Abstract excerpt
Arrestin (also named 48-kDa protein or S-antigen) binds to photoexcited and phosphorylated rhodopsin and thereby prevents activation of cGMP phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.35) by transducin in retinal rods. We report here that retinal arrestin consists of several subspecies (isoelectric points betwe...
