Description
Product Characteristics: The protein encoded by this gene is a non-visual arrestin which binds to agonist-activated, phosphorylated G protein-coupled receptors. This binding uncouples the receptor from the heterotrimeric G protein, resulting in termination of the G protein-coupled receptor signaling. The encoded protein also is a part of the centrosome, interacting with gamma-tubulin to help regulate proper centrosome function.,ARR3,ARRX,cArr,Neuroscience,ARR3
Target Information: functions in deactivation of G protein-coupled receptors involved in color vision [RGD, Feb 2006]
