![]() | Western Blot. Positive WB detected in: U87 whole cell lysate. All lanes: OPN1SW antibody at 3µg/ml. Secondary. Goat polyclonal to rabbit IgG at 1/50000 dilution. Predicted band size: 40 kDa. Observed band size: 40 kDa. |
![]() | Immunofluorescence staining of U251 cells with PACO54358 at 1:100, counter-stained with DAPI. The cells were fixed in 4% formaldehyde, permeabilized using 0.2% Triton X-100 and blocked in 10% normal Goat Serum. The cells were then incubated with the antibody overnight at 4°C. The secondary antibody was Alexa Fluor 488-congugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG(H+L). |
Background: | Visual pigments are the light-absorbing molecules that mediate vision. They consist of an apoprotein, opsin, covalently linked to cis-retinal. |
Synonyms: | Short-wave-sensitive opsin 1 (Blue cone photoreceptor pigment) (Blue-sensitive opsin) (BOP), OPN1SW, BCP |

UniProt Protein Details: | |
NCBI Summary: | This gene belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family, opsin subfamily. It encodes the blue cone pigment gene which is one of three types of cone photoreceptors responsible for normal color vision. Defects in this gene are the cause of tritan color blindness (tritanopia). Affected individuals lack blue and yellow sensory mechanisms while retaining those for red and green. Defective blue vision is characteristic. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
