OPN3 Polyclonal Antibody
OPN3 Polyclonal Antibody (catalogue number 29425) is a rabbit-derived primary antibody validated for Western blot, reactive with Human, Mouse, Rat samples. It targets Opsin-3 (OPN3): G protein-coupled photoreceptor that selectively activates G(i/o) proteins in response to light, thereby decreasing intracellular cAMP levels. Supplied in 2 pack sizes, from 50ul at ₪1,260.38 to 100ul at ₪1,790.64; the final price is confirmed on your quote and the lot certificate of analysis ships with the order.

Target background
Target: Opsin-3 (OPN3) · Homo sapiens
G protein-coupled photoreceptor that selectively activates G(i/o) proteins in response to light, thereby decreasing intracellular cAMP levels. Activation occurs when the opsin-bound cis-retinal chromophore absorbs a photon and isomerizes to all-trans-retinal, inducing a conformational change in the opsin that triggers a G protein-mediated phototransduction cascade. Mediates blue light-induced pigmentation in melanocytes by activating calcium/CAMK2 signaling, followed by phosphorylation of CREB, p38, ERK and MITF. Required for TYR and DCT blue light-induced complex formation in melanocytes.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane; Cytoplasm
Tissue specificity: Expressed throughout the epidermis and dermis, predominantly in the basal layer on the facial and abdominal skin (at protein level). Expressed in dermal fibroblasts (at protein level). Expressed in melanocytes (at protein level). Expressed in keratinocytes. Expressed in the retina.
