Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - The protein is a transmembrane protein with a molecular weight of approximately 140 kDa. - It is a member of the opsin family of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). - It is expressed in the retina, where it is primarily found in cone cells. - It is also expressed in other cell types, including erythrocytes, megakaryocytes, and blood vessel endothelial cells. **Pathways and functions:** - OPN1SW is a key component of the visual transduction pathway in cones. - It is a ligand for G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) opsin, which is expressed in rod and cone cells in the retina. - When opsin binds to its ligand, it triggers a cascade of intracellular events that ultimately lead to the activation of G proteins. - These G proteins then transmit signals to the cytosol, which ultimately modulates the activity of downstream target proteins involved in visual signal transduction. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in the OPN1SW gene have been linked to several eye diseases, including retinoid cycle diseases and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). - These diseases are characterized by progressive damage to the retina and vision loss. - Genetic studies have identified variants in the OPN1SW gene that are associated with increased susceptibility to these diseases. - Understanding the role of OPN1SW in visual transduction has potential implications for the development of new therapeutic strategies for eye diseases.
