Lysine Ubiquitylation Drives Rhodopsin Protein Turnover.

Abstract excerpt

Rhodopsin is a G-protein-coupled receptor that is specifically and abundantly expressed in rod photoreceptors. Over 150 rhodopsin mutations cause autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (adRP). The most common mutation in the United States is the conversion of proline to histidine at position 23 (P23H) in the N-terminal domain of rhodopsin. We previously found that P23H rhodopsin was misfolded, ubiquitinylated,...
