Rhodopsin Epitope Tag acetate is a 9-amino acid peptide representing C terminus of bovine rhodopsin widely used as an epitope tag. A number of anti-rhodopsin antibodies can recognize this epitope.

Rhodopsin Epitope Tag is a 9-amino acid peptide localized within the C-terminal region of bovine rhodopsin . Rhodopsin Epitope Tag is widely used as an epitope tag and can be recognized by a number of anti-rhodopsin antibodies. The specificities of four monoclonal antibodies rho 1D4, 1C5, 3A6, and 3D6 prepared by immunization of rod outer segments containing rhodopsin have been defined using synthetic peptides. All of these antibodies interact within the 18 residues at the COOH terminus of rhodopsin and recognize linear antigenic determinants of 4-11 residues[1].
