The GRK1 Antibody (CAB6497) is a high-quality antibody developed for reliable detection and analysis of target proteins. This antibody, generated in rabbits, exhibits high reactivity specifically with rhodopsin kinase in human samples and has been validated for use in Western blot applications.Rhodopsin kinase is essential for the phosphorylation of rhodopsin, a light-sensitive protein in the retina that initiates the visual cascade. Dysregulation of rhodopsin kinase activity has been implicated in various retinal diseases, including retinitis pigmentosa and night blindness.
This antibody is validated for use in WB, IHC-P, ELISA, IF-P applications and has demonstrated reactivity against Human, Mouse, Rat samples.

This gene encodes a member of the guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptor kinase subfamily of the Ser/Thr protein kinase family. The protein phosphorylates rhodopsin and initiates its deactivation. Defects in GRK1 are known to cause Oguchi disease 2 (also known as stationary night blindness Oguchi type-2).
