Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 5)
- RTP and REEP gene expression in human circumvallate papillae and testis, both of which are sites of taste receptor gene expression. (PMID:16720576)
- Receptor-transporting protein 1 short (RTP1S) mediates translocation and activation of odorant receptors by acting through multiple steps (PMID:22570474)
- Taken together, these results demonstrate DYNC1H1 as a strong candidate and RTP1 as a potential candidate on the onset of epileptic encephalopathies. (PMID:28325891)
- further cell-surface and permeabilized immunocytochemical studies revealed that odorant receptors (ORs) and the co-expressed RTP1S proteins were retained in the Golgi when co-transfected with RTP2, indicating that RTP1S and RTP2 could play different roles in the OR trafficking process. (PMID:28586385)
- using recombinant proteins and split luciferase assays in mammalian cells, we provided evidence for the dimer formation of RTP1S. Furthermore, we determined that the 2nd Cys residue is required for the efficient dimerization of RTP1S. Altogether, these findings provide insights into the mechanism for plasma membrane transport of odorant receptors (ORs) by RTP1S. (PMID:31395660)
