The transducin alpha subunits in rods and cones are encoded by separate genes. This gene encodes the alpha subunit in cones. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as modulators or transducers in various transmembrane signaling systems. Transducin is an amplifier and one of the transducers of a visual impulse that performs the coupling between rhodopsin and cGMP-phosphodiesterase. |G-alpha| |Arf| |retinal cone cell differentiation| |retinal cone cell development| |response to light intensity| |G protein-coupled photoreceptor activity| |photoreceptor outer segment membrane| |detection of light stimulus involved in visual perception| |detection of light stimulus involved in sensory perception| |camera-type eye photoreceptor cell differentiation| |G-protein beta/gamma-subunit complex binding| |heterotrimeric G-protein complex| |eye photoreceptor cell development| |Wnt signaling pathway, calcium modulating pathway| |detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of bitter taste| |phototransduction| |sensory perception of bitter taste| |eye photoreceptor cell differentiation| |photoreceptor cell development| |detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of taste| |detection of visible light| |retina morphogenesis in camera-type eye| |photoreceptor inner segment| |neural retina development| |photoreceptor cell differentiation| |photoreceptor outer segment| |detection of light stimulus| |G protein-coupled receptor binding| |sensory perception of taste| |camera-type eye morphogenesis| |detection of external stimulus| |detection of abiotic stimulus| |non-canonical Wnt signaling pathway| |retina development in camera-type eye| |eye morphogenesis| |adenylate cyclase-modulating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway| |visual perception| |sensory perception of light stimulus| |protein folding| |G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway, coupled to cyclic nucleotide second messenger| |sensory organ morphogenesis| |positive regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration| |response to light stimulus| |camera-type eye development| |regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration| |GTPase activity| |Wnt signaling pathway| |cell-cell signaling by wnt| |eye development| |visual system development| |sensory system development| |GTP binding| |cell surface receptor signaling pathway involved in cell-cell signaling| |cellular calcium ion homeostasis| |response to radiation| |calcium ion homeostasis| |cellular divalent inorganic cation homeostasis| |detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception| |divalent inorganic cation homeostasis| |detection of chemical stimulus| |sensory perception of chemical stimulus| |detection of stimulus involved in sensory perception| |sensory organ development| |cellular metal ion homeostasis| |metal ion homeostasis| |cellular cation homeostasis| |cellular ion homeostasis| |detection of stimulus| |cation homeostasis| |inorganic ion homeostasis| |cellular chemical homeostasis| |ion homeostasis| |neuron development| |cellular homeostasis| |animal organ morphogenesis| |sensory perception| |neuron differentiation| |chemical homeostasis| |cell-cell signaling| |response to abiotic stimulus| |G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway| |nervous system process| |generation of neurons| |neurogenesis| |homeostatic process| |cell development| |system process| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
