Applications

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab247728 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Application Abreviews Notes
ICC Use at an assay dependent concentration.
Flow Cyt Use at an assay dependent concentration.
WB Use at an assay dependent concentration. Detects a band of approximately 55 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 77 kDa).
  • Application notes
    Is unsuitable for IHC-P or IP.
  • Target

    • Function

      Inhibits signal transduction by increasing the GTPase activity of G protein alpha subunits thereby driving them into their inactive GDP-bound form. Binds to G(t)-alpha. Involved in phototransduction; key element in the recovery phase of visual transduction.
    • Tissue specificity

      Highly expressed in the caudate and putamen, lower levels found in the hypothalamus and nucleus accumbens and very low levels in cerebellum. Not expressed in globus pallidus or cingulate cortex. Isoform 2 is expressed predominantly in pineal gland and retina. Isoform 3 is expressed in retina (abundant in photoreceptors).
    • Involvement in disease

      Defects in RGS9 are a cause of prolonged electroretinal response suppression (PERRS) [MIM:608415]; also known as bradyopsia. PERRS is characterized by difficulty adjusting to sudden changes in luminance levels mediated by cones.
    • Sequence similarities

      Contains 1 DEP domain.
      Contains 1 G protein gamma domain.
      Contains 1 RGS domain.
    • Domain

      In photoreceptor cells the DEP domain is essential for targeting RGS9 to the outer rod segments.
    • Post-translational
      modifications

      Retinal isoform 3 is light-dependent phosphorylated at 'Ser-478'. Phosphorylation is decreased by light exposition.
    • Cellular localization

      Membrane. Isoform 3 is targeted to the membrane via its interaction with RGS9BP.
    • Target information above from: UniProt accession O75916 The UniProt Consortium
