Gene(ID):
Expression:
Q9H1Y3 OPN3_HUMAN:

Strongly expressed in brain. Highly expressed in the preoptic area and paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus. Shows highly patterned expression in other regions of the brain, being enriched in selected regions of the cerebral cortex, cerebellar Purkinje cells, a subset of striatal neurons, selected thalamic nuclei, and a subset of interneurons in the ventral horn of the spinal cord.

Application: WB    Species: Human    Sample: HEK

Fig. 3: UVA induces keratinocyte supranuclear melanin cap via OPN3.a OPN3 expression (green) colocalized with HEK marker Pan-CK (red) in skin explant with immunofluorescence staining, without UVA (top) or with UVA irradiation (bottom). Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI. Masson-Fontana (MF) staining demonstrated melanin cap formation. Images were analyzed by brightfield/fluorescence microscopy. Scale bar = 20 µm. b After siRNA inhibited OPN3 irradiated without or with UVA, WB was used to analyze changes in OPN3, Dync1i1, and DCTN1 expression levels in HEK. WB analyses were normalized using β-tubulin as a loading control, and the relative protein level was quantified using Quantity One software. n = 3 independent experiments. Statistical significance was determined by one-ANOVA with post-test. **P
