Human OPN5 (Opsin 5) ELISA Kit

Human OPN5 (Opsin 5) ELISA Kit

The Human (OPN5) Opsin 5 ELISA Kit measures Opsin 5 in samples. The plate has been pre-coated with Human OPN5 antibody. OPN5 present in the sample is added and binds to antibodies coated on the wells. And then biotinylated Human OPN5 Antibody is added and binds to OPN5 in the sample. Then Streptavidin-HRP is added and binds to the Biotinylated OPN5 antibody. After incubation unbound Streptavidin-HRP is washed away during a washing step. Substrate solution is then added and color develops in proportion to the amount of Human OPN5. The reaction is terminated by addition of acidic stop solution and absorbance is measured at 450 nm.

Background G-protein coupled receptor which selectively activates G(i) type G proteins via ultraviolet A (UVA) light-mediated activation in the retina (By similarity). Preferentially binds the chromophore 11-cis retinal and is a bistable protein that displays emission peaks at 380 nm (UVA light) and 470 nm (blue light) (PubMed: 22043319). Required for the light-response in the inner plexiform layer, and contributes to the regulation of the light-response in the nerve fiber layer, via phosphorylated DAT/SLC6A3 dopamine uptake (By similarity). Involved in local corneal and retinal circadian rhythm photoentrainment via modulation of the UVA light-induced phase-shift of the retina clock (By similarity). Acts as a circadian photoreceptor in the outer ear, via modulation of circadian clock-gene expression in response to violet light during the light-to-dark transition phase and night phase of the circadian cycle (By similarity). Required in the retina to negatively regulate hyaloid vessel regression during postnatal development via light-dependent OPN5-SLC32A1-DRD2-VEGFR2 signaling (By similarity). Involved in the light-dependent regulation of retina and vitreous compartment dopamine levels (By similarity). Source: UniProt Consortium (2025)
