rhodopsin

General Information (Source: NCBI Gene,UniProt)

Text mining Term rhodopsin
UniProt ID OPSD_RAT
Name Rhodopsin
Gene Names Rho
Taxonomy Rattus norvegicus

General annotation

Function Photoreceptor required for image-forming vision at low light intensity. Required for photoreceptor cell viability after birth. Light-induced isomerization of 11-cis to all-trans retinal triggers a conformational change leading to G-protein activation and release of all-trans retinal (By similarity).
Subcellular location Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Synthesized in the inner segment (IS) of rod photoreceptor cells before vectorial transport to the rod outer segment (OS) photosensory cilia (By similarity).
