The following Rhodopsin ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of rhodopsin in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the RHO gene. This protein has been described to function in GPCR signaling pathways and protein phosphorylation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 348 residues, a mass of 38.9 kDa, and is a member of the G-protein coupled receptor 1 protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the membrane. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally phosphorylated and glycosylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Retinitis pigmentosa. This protein may also be known as OPN2, RP4, opsin 2, rod pigment, opsin-2, and CSNBAD1.
There are rhodopsin ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 7 ng/L and as high as 200 ng/mL. Use the search filters to narrow your search and click on the ELISA kits below for more detailed information, such as reactivity and assay sensitivity.
