The following G Protein-coupled Receptor kinase 1 ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of G protein-coupled receptor kinase 1 in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the GRK1 gene. This protein is known to be a retina-specific kinase involved in the signal turnoff via phosphorylation of rhodopsin (RHO), the G protein- coupled receptor that initiates the phototransduction cascade. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 563 residues, a mass of 63.5 kDa, and is a member of the AGC Ser/Thr protein kinase protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the membrane. In addition, it is reported to have retinal-specific expression. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally phosphorylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Night blindness. This protein may also be known as RHOK, RK, rhodopsin kinase GRK1, and GPRK1.
The detection range for different G Protein-coupled Receptor kinase 1 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.313 ng/mL and as high as 20 ng/mL.
