Example sentences for: rhodopsin
How can you use “rhodopsin” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The final purification step, utilizing a hydroxylapatite column, has been previously used with rhodopsin [ 11 ] . This column proved to be more efficient as a final step in the purification than as a preliminary one, because large amounts of contaminant protein tended to slow the flow rate drastically.
This GPCR-mediated regulation of ion channels also depends on the coordination and parallel regulation of protein tyrosine kinase and protein tyrosine phosphatase activities [ 24 ] . GPCRs can also interact with the growing family of PDZ domain-containing proteins [ 25 ] . All of these relationships are reflected in our study by the strong correlation between 7 transmembrane receptors (rhodopsin family) (PF00001), protein kinases (PF00069), protein tyrosine phosphatases (PF00102), ion transport proteins (PF00520), and PDZ domain proteins (PF00595).
mammalian rhodopsin, which has two palmitoyl molecules attached to cysteine residues).
For example, levels of 4-HNE increased significantly in the vitreous of patients with proliferative vitreoretinopathy compared with controls [ 17 ] . Further, 4-HNE forms a stable adduct with rhodopsin in the photoreceptor, which may interfere with its functions [ 18 ] . 4-HNE even causes cataracts in cultured rat lens [ 19 20 ] . Whether oxidative stress on RPE can cause accumulation of cellular HNE-protein adducts remains unknown.
We found that photoreceptor-specific genes typically showing high, retina-specific expression that began around one week after birth, coinciding exactly with the previously reported increase in expression of rhodopsin and other rod-specific genes [ 13 14 15 ] . We typically saw higher expression of photoreceptor-specific genes in microSAGE libraries made from microdissected outer nuclear layer (97% rods versus 70% rods for whole retina) and, in many cases, higher expression in P10.
