 | Baehr, Wolfgang; Zhang, Kang | Characterization of human GRK7 as a potential cone opsin kinase | PURPOSE: Homozygous inactivation of the mouse gene for GRK1 (G protein-coupled receptor kinase 1, or rhodopsin kinase) causes severe defects in the recovery of cone phototransduction. However, electroretinographic (ERG) analyses of human oguchi patients with defective GRK1 alleles showed normal or s... | Amino Acid Sequence; Chromosomes, Human, Pair 3; Fluorescent Antibody Technique, Indirect | 2001 |

 | Jaskowski, Troy D. | Comparison of four enzyme immunoassays with a western blot assay for the determination of type-specific antibodies to herpes simplex virus | Most current enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) differentiate inadequately between types 1 and 2 herpes simplex virus (HSV) antibodies since significant crossreactivity exists. We compared 4 IgG type-specific EIAs using a Western blot assay for resolution of discrepant results.
