Unlock the potential of signal transduction research with our Recombinant Human SAG protein. S-arrestin, also known as retinal S-antigen or rod photoreceptor arrestin, plays a crucial role in the regulation of phototransduction in the retina. By modulating the activity of rhodopsin, a light-sensitive G protein-coupled receptor, SAG contributes to the desensitization and adaptation of photoreceptor cells, allowing them to adjust to changing light conditions. Our Recombinant Human SAG protein is expressed in yeast, resulting in a full-length protein (1-405aa) that maintains its native structure and function. The N-terminal 6xHis-tag allows for efficient purification and easy detection of the protein. With a purity greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE, our Recombinant Human SAG protein ensures reliable and consistent results for your signal transduction research. Available in both liquid and lyophilized powder forms, our Recombinant Human SAG protein is an indispensable tool for exploring the complex world of cellular signaling pathways.

Target Full Name
S-arrestin
Target Function
Binds to photoactivated, phosphorylated RHO and terminates RHO signaling via G-proteins by competing with G-proteins for the same binding site on RHO. May play a role in preventing light-dependent degeneration of retinal photoreceptor cells.
Target Involvement
Night blindness, congenital stationary, Oguchi type 1 (CSNBO1); Retinitis pigmentosa 47 (RP47)
Target Subcellular Location
Cell projection, cilium, photoreceptor outer segment. Membrane; Peripheral membrane protein.
Target Protein Families
Arrestin family
Target Tissue Specificity
Detected in retina, in the proximal portion of the outer segment of rod photoreceptor cells (at protein level).
Target Research Area
Neuroscience, Signal Transduction
Target Synonyms

Target Background
Members of arrestin/beta-arrestin protein family are thought to participate in agonist-mediated desensitization of G-protein-coupled receptors and cause specific dampening of cellular responses to stimuli such as hormones, neurotransmitters, or sensory signals. S-arrestin, also known as S-antigen, is a major soluble photoreceptor protein that is involved in desensitization of the photoactivated transduction cascade. It is expressed in the retina and the pineal gland and inhibits coupling of rhodopsin to transducin in vitro. Additionally, S-arrestin is highly antigenic, and is capable of inducing experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Oguchi disease, a rare autosomal recessive form of night blindness.
