UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: P09241 (P09241)
Gene Name:
RHO
Organism: Enteroctopus dofleini (North Pacific giant octopus)
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)

Protein Subcellular Localization: Cell projection, rhabdomere membrane
