SAG Protein, Human (P.pastoris, His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

SAG proteins play a crucial role in phototransduction, regulating signal transduction by binding to light-activated and phosphorylated rhodopsin (RHO). It terminates RHO signaling by competitively interacting with G proteins at the same binding site on RHO. SAG Protein, Human (P.pastoris, His) is the recombinant human-derived SAG protein, expressed by P. pastoris , with N-6*His labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

SAG proteins play a crucial role in phototransduction, regulating signal transduction by binding to light-activated and phosphorylated rhodopsin (RHO). It terminates RHO signaling by competitively interacting with G proteins at the same binding site on RHO. SAG Protein, Human (P.pastoris, His) is the recombinant human-derived SAG protein, expressed by P. pastoris , with N-6*His labeled tag.

Background

The SAG protein exhibits a crucial regulatory role in phototransduction by binding to photoactivated and phosphorylated rhodopsin (RHO), thereby terminating RHO signaling via G-proteins. Through competitive interaction with G-proteins for the same binding site on RHO, SAG effectively modulates signal transduction in a manner consistent with similar proteins. Moreover, SAG may contribute to preventing light-dependent degeneration of retinal photoreceptor cells, as suggested by research findings. Structurally, SAG can exist as a monomer, homodimer, or homotetramer, highlighting its versatile oligomeric states. Furthermore, SAG engages in specific interactions with RHO, specifically binding to the phosphorylated C-terminus, elucidating its intricate involvement in the molecular dynamics of photoreceptor cells.
