• Protein Description: Recoverin is a heterogeneously acylated calcium-binding and intracellular signal transduction protein in the photoreceptor cells of retina. Recoverin contains four EF-hands, of which two bind Ca. Ca-induced extrusion of the acyl group from a hydrophobic cleft in the protein drives the translocation of recoverin from solution to the disc membrane. Recently, recoverin is a detectable serologic protein that is expressed in patients with cancer-associated retinopathy, a paraneoplastic syndrome. Recombinant human recoverin was overexpressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques
• Storage: Store undiluted at 2-8°C for one month or (in aliquots) at -20°C to -80°C for longer.
  Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
• Stability: Shelf life: one year from despatch.

Reference Data

• RefSeq: NP_002894
• Locus ID: 5957
• UniProt ID: P35243
• Cytogenetics: 17p13.1
• Synonyms: RCV1
• Summary: This gene encodes a member of the recoverin family of neuronal calcium sensors. The encoded protein contains three calcium-binding EF-hand domains and may prolong the termination of the phototransduction cascade in the retina by blocking the phosphorylation of photo-activated rhodopsin. Recoverin may be the antigen responsible for cancer-associated retinopathy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
