NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family, opsin subfamily. It encodes the blue cone pigment gene which is one of three types of cone photoreceptors responsible for normal color vision. Defects in this gene are the cause of tritan color blindness (tritanopia). Affected individuals lack blue and yellow sensory mechanisms while retaining those for red and green. Defective blue vision is characteristic. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description

Product Notes
The Canine OPN1SW opn1sw (Catalog #AAA9360087) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9360087 ELISA Kit recognizes Canine OPN1SW. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Short-Wave-Sensitive Opsin 1 (OPN1SW), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
