UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: O62798 (O62798)
Gene Name:
RHO
Organism: Tursiops truncatus (Atlantic bottle-nosed dolphin)
Function: Photoreceptor required for image-forming vision at low light intensity. Light-induced isomerization of 11-cis to all-trans retinal triggers a conformational change that activates signaling via G-proteins. Signaling mediates the activation of phospholipase C (By similarity). Subsequent receptor phosphorylation mediates displacement of the bound G-protein alpha subunit by arrestin and terminates signaling (By similarity)
Other Modifications: View all modification sites in dbPTM
Protein Subcellular Localization: Membrane. Cell projection, cilium, photoreceptor outer segment
