Related Product Information for anti-GRK1 antibody
Description: Retina-specific kinase involved in the signal turnoff via phosphorylation of rhodopsin (RHO), the G protein- coupled receptor that initiates the phototransduction cascade. This rapid desensitization is essential for scotopic vision and permits rapid adaptation to changes in illumination.

Post Translational Modifications: Autophosphorylated, Ser-21 is a minor site of autophosphorylation compared to Ser-491 and Thr-492 (By similarity). Phosphorylation at Ser-21 is regulated by light and activated by cAMP. Farnesylation is required for full activity.

Subunit Structure: Interacts (when prenylated) with PDE6D; this promotes release from membranes.

Similarity: Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. AGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. GPRK subfamily.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptor kinase subfamily of the Ser/Thr protein kinase family. The protein phosphorylates rhodopsin and initiates its deactivation. Defects in GRK1 are known to cause Oguchi disease 2 (also known as stationary night blindness Oguchi type-2). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

GRK1: a Ser/Thr of the GRK family. Phosphorylates and inactivates photon-activated rhodopsin. LOF mutations lead to type 2 Oguchi disease, a form of night blindness. A link between RHOK and retinitis pigmentosa is now thought to be unlikely

Protein type: Protein kinase, Ser/Thr (non-receptor); Kinase, protein; Protein kinase, AGC; EC 2.7.11.14; AGC group; GRK family; GRK subfamily

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 13q34

Molecular Function: G-protein coupled receptor kinase activity; rhodopsin kinase activity; ATP binding; protein kinase activity

Biological Process: rhodopsin mediated signaling; post-embryonic retina morphogenesis in camera-type eye; phototransduction, visible light; regulation of rhodopsin mediated signaling; visual perception; protein amino acid autophosphorylation; photoreceptor cell morphogenesis; regulation of G-protein coupled receptor protein signaling pathway; positive regulation of phosphorylation; negative regulation of apoptosis

Disease: Oguchi Disease 2

Product Notes

The GRK1 grk1 (Catalog #AAA9611187) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The GRK1 Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat Predicted: Pig, Bovine, Horse, Rabbit, Dog, Xenopus and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's GRK1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Peptide ELISA (EIA). WB: 1:500-1:2000 ELISA (Peptide): 1:20000-1:40000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the GRK1 grk1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "GRK1, Polyclonal Antibody" 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.
