S-arrestin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SAG gene.[1][2]

Members of arrestin/beta-arrestin protein family are thought to participate in agonist-mediated desensitization of G-protein-coupled receptors and cause specific dampening of cellular responses to stimuli such as hormones, neurotransmitters, or sensory signals. S-arrestin, also known as S-antigen, is a major soluble photoreceptor protein that is involved in desensitization of the photoactivated transduction cascade. It is expressed in the retina and the pineal gland and inhibits coupling of rhodopsin to transducin in vitro. Additionally, S-arrestin is highly antigenic, and is capable of inducing experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Oguchi disease, a rare autosomal recessive form of night blindness.[2]

SAG

SAG is the acronym for:

  • SAG (gene) S-Arrestin, a protein that in humans is encoded by the SAG gene
  • Scientific Analysis Group, a laboratory of the Defence Research and Development Organization of India
  • Screen Actors Guild, an American labor union
  • Screen Actors Guild Awards (also known as the SAG Award)
  • Semi-autogenous grinding mills
  • SQL Access Group
  • Surface Action Group
  • SAG wagon — "support and gear" or "support and grub — see Glossary of cycling#S
  • Alternative representation of Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A)
  • Serbian Army Group - A successful War Thunder Squadron
  • SAg is the abbreviation for:

  • SAg, short for superantigen
  • Sag (or Sâg, Șag, Šag) may refer to:

  • Sagitta (optics), a measure of lens surface shape
  • Lens sag, distortion of astronomical lenses and mirrors
  • Sag (geology), or trough, a depressed, persistent, low area
  • Sag Harbor, New York, a village in Suffolk County, New York, USA
  • Sag pond, a body of water collected in the lowest parts of a depression
  • Voltage sag

    A voltage sag (U.S. English) or voltage dip (British English) is a short duration reduction in rms voltage which can be caused by a short circuit, overload or starting of electric motors. A voltage sag happens when the rms voltage decreases between 10 and 90 percent of nominal voltage for one-half cycle to one minute. Some references defines the duration of a sag for a period of 0.5 cycle to a few seconds, and longer duration of low voltage would be called a "sustained sag".

    Related notions

    The term "sag" should not be confused with brownout which is the reduction of voltage for minutes or hours.

    The term "transient" as used in power quality is an umbrella term and can refer to sags, but also to swells, dropouts etc.

    Swell

    Voltage swell is the opposite of voltage sag. Voltage swell, which is a momentary increase in voltage, happens when a heavy load turns off in a power system.

    Causes

    There are several factors which cause a voltage sag to happen:

  • Since the electric motors draw more current when they are starting than when they are running at their rated speed, starting an electric motor can be a reason of a voltage sag.
  • Sag (geology)

    In geology a sag, or trough, is a depressed, persistent, low area; the opposite of an arch, or ridge, a raised, persistent, high area. The terms sag and arch were used historically to describe very large features, for example, characterizing North America as two arches with a sag between them.

    Also, a sag is a former river bed which has been partially filled with debris from glaciation or other natural processes but which is still visible in the surface terrain. Sags formed by the former river beds of large rivers often become the valleys of smaller streams after a change of course by the main river.

    Examples of sags include the former continuations of the Grand, Moreau and White rivers in South Dakota in the United States. Before the last ice age these rivers continued eastward past their current confluences with the present course of Missouri River. The sags are prominently visible on the plateau of the Coteau du Missouri, allowing small streams to drain into the Missouri from its eastern side.

    Gene

    A gene is a locus (or region) of DNA that encodes a functional RNA or protein product, and is the molecular unit of heredity. The transmission of genes to an organism's offspring is the basis of the inheritance of phenotypic traits. Most biological traits are under the influence of polygenes (many different genes) as well as the gene–environment interactions. Some genetic traits are instantly visible, such as eye colour or number of limbs, and some are not, such as blood type, risk for specific diseases, or the thousands of basic biochemical processes that comprise life.

    Genes can acquire mutations in their sequence, leading to different variants, known as alleles, in the population. These alleles encode slightly different versions of a protein, which cause different phenotype traits. Colloquial usage of the term "having a gene" (e.g., "good genes," "hair colour gene") typically refers to having a different allele of the gene. Genes evolve due to natural selection or survival of the fittest of the alleles.

    Eugene (given name)

    Eugene is a common (masculine) first name that comes from the Greek εὐγενής (eugenēs), "noble", literally "well-born", from εὖ (eu), "well" and γένος (genos), "race, stock, kin".Gene is a common shortened form. The feminine variant is Eugenia or Eugénie.

    Male foreign-language variants include:

  • Gene (novel)

    Gene is a thriller novel by Stel Pavlou (born 1970), published in 2005 in England by Simon & Schuster. It is published in several languages with some title changes. The Italian edition has the title La Conspirazione del Minotauro (The Minotaur Conspiracy). The novel is about a fictional New York detective, James North, who in the process of hunting down a criminal, uncovers a genetics experiment to unlock past lives through genetic memory, therefore achieving a kind of immortality. In so doing North discovers his own origins, that of a soldier from the Trojan War who is reincarnated seven times through history, forced to confront his nemesis each time, all for the loss of his one true love.
