From
Recombinant Antibody
Specificity
The antibody binds specifically to the C3-loop of metarhodpsin-I with a Kd of 2.8 nM, the epitope being TGALQERSK.
Alternative Names
UniProt
P02699
Immunogen
Bovine rod cell disc membranes.
Application Notes
This antibody specifically binds to the C3-loop of metarhodopsin-I, which is in equilibrium with the meta-active metarhodopsin II. The antibody stabilises the inactive metarhodopsin-I, inhibiting G-protein activation.
