Abstract excerpt
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the molecular defect in the disease-causing human arrestin-1 C147F mutant. Methods: The binding of wild-type (WT) human arrestin-1 and several mutants with substitutions in position 147 (including C147F, which causes dominant retinitis pigmentosa in humans) to phosphorylated and unphosphorylated light-activated rhodopsin was determined. Thermal stability of WT...
