OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes for a light absorbing visual pigment of the opsin gene family. The encoded protein is called green cone photopigment or medium-wavelength sensitive opsin. Opsins are G-protein coupled receptors with seven transmembrane domains, an N-terminal extracellular domain, and a C-terminal cytoplasmic domain. The long-wavelength opsin gene and multiple copies of the medium-wavelength opsin gene are tandemly arrayed on the X chromosome and frequent unequal recombination and gene conversion may occur between these sequences. X chromosomes may have fusions of the medium- and long-wavelength opsin genes or may have more than one copy of these genes. Defects in this gene are the cause of deutanopic colorblindness.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against OPN1MW2 can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Does the body need this protein intact? Low LOEUF or a strong DepMap dependency means loss or blockade of the protein is likely to be felt.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads OPN1MW2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against OPN1MW2 could matter depends on whether native OPN1MW2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

OPN1MW2 is annotated at the cell surface, where native OPN1MW2 is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label OPN1MW2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
