ab31928 staining Recoverin in rat brain tissue section by Immunohistochemistry (PFA perfusion fixed frozen sections). Tissue underwent fixation in paraformaldehyde without permeation and blocking steps. The primary antibody was diluted, 1/300 (PBS + 0.3% Triton X100) and incubated with sample for 18 hours at 20°C. An Alexa Fluor® 488 conjugated goat polyclonal to mouse IgG, diluted 1/1000 was used as secondary.

Supplementary information

Recoverin also known as RCVRN is a calcium-binding protein part of the neuronal calcium sensor family. With a molecular weight of approximately 23 kDa it is mainly found in the retina and pineal gland. It functions in the phototransduction process particularly in the recovery phase of visual responses. Recoverin interacts with other proteins in a calcium-dependent manner and plays a role in inhibiting rhodopsin kinase activity when calcium levels are high.
Biological function summary

Recoverin regulates the inhibition of rhodopsin phosphorylation in photoreceptor cells. It is not part of a complex but works closely with G-protein coupled receptors in the retina to modulate the recovery of photo responses following light exposure. Its ability to bind to calcium ions triggers conformational changes that allow it to carry out these critical functions.

Pathways

One can consider that recoverin plays a significant role in the visual cycle and the phototransduction cascade. In these pathways recoverin modulates rhodopsin kinase and other related proteins to ensure proper rod and cone cell recovery following light stimulation. Recoverin interacts with proteins such as transducin enabling efficient modulation of light signal transduction and termination.

Recoverin has associations with cancer-associated retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration. Cancer-associated retinopathy an autoimmune condition involves antibodies against recoverin affecting normal function and leading to vision loss. In these conditions proteins like rhodopsin and other phototransduction components are impacted through the disruption caused by anti-recoverin antibodies.

Target data

Acts as a calcium sensor and regulates phototransduction of cone and rod photoreceptor cells (By similarity). Modulates light sensitivity of cone photoreceptor in dark and dim conditions (By similarity). In response to high Ca(2+) levels induced by low light levels, prolongs RHO/rhodopsin activation in rod photoreceptor cells by binding to and inhibiting GRK1-mediated phosphorylation of RHO/rhodopsin (By similarity). Plays a role in scotopic vision/enhances vision in dim light by enhancing signal transfer between rod photoreceptors and rod bipolar cells (By similarity). Improves rod photoreceptor sensitivity in dim light and mediates response of rod photoreceptors to facilitate detection of change and motion in bright light (By similarity).
