Automatically generated summary

See sections below for more information
The gene Rhodopsin 4 is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\Rh4 (CG9668, FBgn0003250). It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: G-protein coupled photoreceptor activity. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: phototransduction, UV. 9 alleles are reported. No phenotypic data is available. It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide. Protein features are: GPCR, rhodopsin-like superfamily; GPCR, rhodopsin-like, 7TM; Opsin; Opsin RH3/RH4. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of extremely low expression. Peak expression observed in adult male stages. Summary of FlyAtlas Anatomical Expression Data: Expression at high levels in the following post-embryonic organs or tissues: adult head, adult eye. Comments on Affy2 ProbeSet: ProbeSet 1626251_at completely aligns to an exonic region of the only FlyBase-annotated transcript isoform of Rh4. Gene sequence location is 3L:16845621..16856124.

hide Phenotypic Description from the Red Book (Lindsley & Zimm 1992)
Gene/Allele symbols may differ from current usage
Rh4
Encodes the opsin moiety of a rhodopsin specific to the rhabdomere of the seventh photoreceptor cell; Rh3 and Rh4 are expressed in nonoverlapping subsets of ommatidia; the distribution of the two types of R7 cells within the eye is irregular. Transcript first appears during the last 48 hr of the pupal stage and is found in newly eclosed adult heads. Also expressed in Bolwig's organ [Pollock and Benzer, 1988, Nature (London) 333: 779-82)]. RH4 is a 378 amino acid protein that is 35% homologous to the opsins found in R1-6 encoded by ninaE and in the ocelli, encoded by Rh2, but 72% homologous to the Rh3-encoded protein.

Confocal microscopy suggests that rhodopsin 4 is located in the pale fluorescent R7 cells.
Promoter fusions generated to express Rh4 under control of ninaE promoter, in a ninaE background.
In contrast to D.melanogaster, where the sina gene is located within an intron of Rh4, Dvir\sina and Dvir\Rh4 are widely separated in D.virilis. This different structural arrangement may have been caused by the translocation of the Dvir\Rh4 gene to a different chromosomal location by a retrotransposition event in D.virilis.
Ecol\CAT reporter gene analysis has been used to identify the minimal R7 opsin regulatory regions of the Rh4 promoter region. The promoter region is a simple bipartite structure, the proximal region constitutes a functionally equivalent promoter core and the distal region determines cell-type specificity.
Identified as a cDNA clone that is expressed exclusively or predominantly in the adult visual system.
Encodes the opsin moiety of a rhodopsin specific to the rhabdomere of the seventh photoreceptor cell; Rh3 and Rh4 are expressed in nonoverlapping subsets of ommatidia; the distribution of the two types of R7 cells within the eye is irregular. Transcript first appears during the last 48 hr of the pupal stage and is found in newly eclosed adult heads. Also expressed in Bolwig's organ (FBrf0048777). Rh4 encodes a 378 amino acid protein that is 35% homologous to the opsins found in R1-6 encoded by ninaE and in the ocelli, encoded by Rh2, but 72% homologous to the Rh3-encoded protein.
