Protein
Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase, rhodopsin-specific isozyme
Organism
Drosophila melanogaster
Function
PPIases accelerate the folding of proteins. It catalyzes the cis-trans isomerization of proline imidic peptide bonds in oligopeptides. Acts on the folding of rhodopsin RH1 and RH2 (but not RH3) and is required for visual transduction.
Similarity
Belongs to the cyclophilin-type PPIase family.
