S-antigen visual arrestin (SAG), also known as S-arrestin, is a major soluble protein found in photoreceptor cells of the retina and pineal gland, where it plays a critical role in the desensitization of the photoactivated transduction cascade by binding to photoactivated, phosphorylated rhodopsin (RHO) and terminating RHO signaling via G-proteins, thus preventing overstimulation and light-dependent degeneration of retinal photoreceptor cells. SAG is highly antigenic and can induce experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis. Mutations in the SAG gene are associated with two main diseases: Oguchi disease, a rare autosomal recessive form of night blindness, and Retinitis Pigmentosa 47, which can result from dominant-acting missense mutations such as c.440G>T (p.Cys147Phe) that cause protein misfolding and instability, leading to progressive retinal degeneration.
