The retromer complex is required for rhodopsin recycling and its loss leads to photoreceptor degeneration.

The retromer complex is required for rhodopsin recycling and its loss leads to photoreceptor degeneration.

Rhodopsin mistrafficking can cause photoreceptor (PR) degeneration. Upon light exposure, activated rhodopsin 1 (Rh1) in Drosophila PRs is internalized via endocytosis and degraded in lysosomes. Whether internalized Rh1 can be recycled is unknown. Here, we show that the retromer complex is expressed...
