Research Abstract |
We screened to identify new genes involved in Rhodopsin transport andfound two that the deficiency of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) synthesis/attachment processes causes the loss of the apical transport of Rhodopsinfrom the TGN (Development, 2013). In the process of studying Arrstin mediated signaling, we found that Arr2 translocation in Drosophilaphotoreceptors is driven by diffusion, but profoundly accelerated by phototransduction and Ca2+influx (Neuron 2010, J. Neursci. 2012)
