Entry terms

  • Retinal S Antigen
  • Retinal S-Antigen
  • S Antigen, Retinal
  • S-Antigen, Retinal

Note

  • an eye protein; do not confuse with ARRESTINS

Scope note

  • A 48-Kd protein of the outer segment of the retinal rods and a component of the phototransduction cascade. Arrestin quenches G-protein activation by binding to phosphorylated photolyzed rhodopsin. Arrestin causes experimental autoimmune uveitis when injected into laboratory animals.

History note

  • 97; was S ANTIGEN, RETINAL (NM) 1981-96
