Abstract excerpt
Rds/peripherin is an integral membrane glycoprotein that is present in the rims of photoreceptor outer segment disks. In mammals, it is thought to stabilize the disk rim through heterophilic interactions with the related nonglycosylated protein roml. Glycosylation of rds/peripherin at asparagine...
