rhodopsin kinase

rhodopsin kinase
rho·dop·sin ki·nase (ro-dopґsin kiґnās) [EC 2.7.11.14] an enzyme that phosphorylates activated rhodopsin, enabling it to bind arrestin and thus inhibiting its binding to transducin; the reaction occurs in the deactivation of activated rhodopsin during the visual cycle.
