The encoded protein is thought to play a crucial role in cone phototransduction. It belongs to the G protein gamma family and localized specifically in cones. Several transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]. * **UniProt Summary**: Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as a modulator or transducer in various transmembrane signaling systems. The beta and gamma chains are required for the GTPase activity, for replacement of GDP by GTP, and for G protein- effector interaction. |G-gamma| |G-protein beta/gamma-subunit complex| |G-protein beta-subunit binding| |heterotrimeric G-protein complex| |phototransduction| |detection of light stimulus| |detection of external stimulus| |detection of abiotic stimulus| |response to light stimulus| |GTPase activity| |response to radiation| |detection of stimulus| |response to abiotic stimulus| |G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp331|A-769662 20μM R07 exp331]]|1.92| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
