Blocking peptides are peptides that bind specifically to the target antibody and block antibody binding. These peptide usually contains the epitope recognized by the antibody. Antibodies bound to the blocking peptide no longer bind to the epitope on the target protein. By comparing the staining from the blocked antibody versus the antibody alone, one can see which staining is specific.

Research Backgrounds

Q16518_RPE65_HUMAN

Function:

Critical isomerohydrolase in the retinoid cycle involved in regeneration of 11-cis-retinal, the chromophore of rod and cone opsins. Catalyzes the cleavage and isomerization of all-trans-retinyl fatty acid esters to 11-cis-retinol which is further oxidized by 11-cis retinol dehydrogenase to 11-cis-retinal for use as visual chromophore. Essential for the production of 11-cis retinal for both rod and cone photoreceptors. Also capable of catalyzing the isomerization of lutein to meso-zeaxanthin an eye-specific carotenoid. The soluble form binds vitamin A (all-trans-retinol), making it available for LRAT processing to all-trans-retinyl ester. The membrane form, palmitoylated by LRAT, binds all-trans-retinyl esters, making them available for IMH (isomerohydrolase) processing to all-cis-retinol. The soluble form is regenerated by transferring its palmitoyl groups onto 11-cis-retinol, a reaction catalyzed by LRAT (By similarity).

PTMs:

Palmitoylation by LRAT regulates ligand binding specificity; the palmitoylated form (membrane form) specifically binds all-trans-retinyl-palmitate, while the soluble unpalmitoylated form binds all-trans-retinol (vitamin A) (By similarity).

Subcellular Location:

Cytoplasm. Cell membrane>Lipid-anchor. Microsome membrane.
Note: Attached to the membrane by a lipid anchor when palmitoylated (membrane form), soluble when unpalmitoylated. Undergoes light-dependent intracellular transport to become more concentrated in the central region of the retina pigment epithelium cells.

Tissue Specificity:

Retina (at protein level). Retinal pigment epithelium specific.

Subunit Structure:

Interacts with MYO7A; this mediates light-dependent intracellular transport of RPE65.

Family&Domains:

Belongs to the carotenoid oxygenase family.
