The deduced amino-acid sequence of opsin from rabbit rod photoreceptors

The amino acid (aa) sequence of rabbit opsin from rod photoreceptor cells was determined by direct aa sequencing and conceptual translation from the cDNA. The cDNA (1198 bp) containing the complete coding region encodes a 348-aa opsin protein. Of the 16 rod cell opsins that are known, rabbit opsin i...

Zusammenfassung:	The amino acid (aa) sequence of rabbit opsin from rod photoreceptor cells was determined by direct aa sequencing and conceptual translation from the cDNA. The cDNA (1198 bp) containing the complete coding region encodes a 348-aa opsin protein. Of the 16 rod cell opsins that are known, rabbit opsin is most similar to human opsin (96.3% identity at the aa level).
