Baehr, Wolfgang; Thulin, Craig | Immunolocalization and divergent roles of phosducin and phosducin-like protein in the retina | PURPOSE: These investigations were undertaken to compare and contrast the roles of phosducin and phosducin-like protein in the retina. METHODS: Phosducin and phosducin-like protein were compared in an in vitro assay measuring their inhibition of transducin binding to light-activated rhodopsin.

Frederick, Jeanne M.; Thulin, Craig; Bernstein, Paul S. | Identification and characterization of a Pi isoform of glutathione S-transferase (GSTP1) as a zeaxanthin-binding protein in the macula of the human eye | Uptake, metabolism, and stabilization of xanthophyll carotenoids in the retina are thought to be mediated by specific xanthophyll-binding proteins (XBPs). A membrane-associated XBP was purified from human macula using ion-exchange chromatography followed by gel-exclusion chromatography. Two-dimensio... | Circular Dichroism; Isoelectric Focusing; Macula Lutea; Xanthophylls | 2004 |
