Peropsin,a visual pigment-like receptor, is aproteinthat in humans is encoded by theRRHgene.[5][6]It belongs like other animalopsinsto theG protein-coupled receptors.[6]Even so, the first peropsins were already discovered inmiceandhumansin 1997,[5]not much is known about them.[7]

Photochemistry

[edit]

Like most opsins, peropsins have in its seventhtransmembrane domainalysinecorresponding toamino acidposition 296 incattlerhodopsin,[5][7]which is important for retinal binding and light sensing.[8]

Inamphioxus,acephalochordate,a peropsin binds in the dark-state all-trans-retinalinstead of 11-cis-retinal,[9]as it is in cattle rhodopsin.[10][11][12][13][14]Therefore, peropsins have been suggested to be photoisomerases.[9]

Tissue localization

[edit]

In mice, a peropsin is localized to the apicalmicrovilliof theretinal pigment epithelium(RPE).[5]There, it regulates storage or the movement ofvitamin Afrom theretinato the RPE.[15]A peropsin is also expressed inkeratinocytesof the humanskin.In keratinocytecell culture,it reacts toUV lightif retinal is supplied.[16]Inchicken,a peropsin is expressed with an RGR-opsin in thepineal glandand the retina.[17]

Gene localization and structure

[edit]

The human peropsin gene lies onchromosome4 band 4q25 and has sixintrons[6][18]like RGR-opsins. However only two of these introns are inserted at the same place, which still indicates that peropsins and RGR-opsins are more closely related to each other than to the ciliary and rhabdomeric opsins.[18]This shared gene structure is also reflected in opsin phylogenies, where peropsins and RGR-opsins are in the same group: The chromopsins.[18][7][19][20]

Phylogeny

[edit]

The peropsins are restricted to thecraniatesand the cephalochordates.[7]Thecraniatesare thetaxonthat containsmammalsand with them humans. The peropsins are one of the seven subgroups of the chromopsins. The other groups are theRGR-opsins,theretinochromes,the nemopsins, the astropsins, the varropsins, and the gluopsins.[7]The chromopsins are one of three subgroups of the tetraopsins (also known as RGR/Go or Group 4 opsins). The other groups are theneuropsinsand the Go-opsins. The tetraopsins are one of the five major groups of the animalopsins,also known as type 2 opsins). The other groups are the ciliary opsins (c-opsins, cilopsins), the rhabdomeric opsins (r-opsins, rhabopsins), the xenopsins, and the nessopsins. Four of these subclades occur inBilateria(all but the nessopsins).[7][19]However, the bilaterian clades constitute aparaphyletictaxon without the opsins from thecnidarians.[7][19][20][21]

In thephylogenyabove, Eachcladecontains sequences from opsins and other G protein-coupled receptors. The number of sequences and two pie charts are shown next to the clade. The first pie chart shows the percentage of a certainamino acidat the position in the sequences corresponding to position 296 in cattle rhodopsin. The amino acids are color-coded. The colors are red forlysine(K), purple forglutamic acid(E), orange forarginine(R), dark and mid-gray for other amino acids, and light gray for sequences that have no data at that position. The second pie chart gives the taxon composition for each clade, green stands forcraniates,dark green forcephalochordates,mid green forechinoderms,brown fornematodes,pale pink forannelids,dark blue forarthropods,light blue formollusks,and purple forcnidarians.The branches to the clades have pie charts, which give support values for the branches. The values are from right to left SH-aLRT/aBayes/UFBoot. The branches are considered supported when SH-aLRT ≥ 80%, aBayes ≥ 0.95, and UFBoot ≥ 95%. If a support value is above its threshold the pie chart is black otherwise gray.[7]

Clinical significance

[edit]

SinceRGR-opsinmay be associated withretinitis pigmentosa,[22]which is like peropsin also expressed in the retinal pigment epithelium, peropsin was screened for a link with retinitis pigmentosa.[23]However, no link could be established.[23][24]
