The encoded protein binds to 11-cis retinal and is activated when light hits the retinal molecule. Defects in this gene are a cause of congenital stationary night blindness. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]. * **UniProt Summary**: Photoreceptor required for image-forming vision at low light intensity (PubMed:8107847, PubMed:7846071). Required for photoreceptor cell viability after birth (PubMed:2215617, PubMed:12566452). Light-induced isomerization of the chromophore 11-cis-retinal to all-trans-retinal triggers a conformational change that activates signaling via G-proteins (PubMed:8107847, PubMed:28524165, PubMed:26200343, PubMed:28753425). Subsequent receptor phosphorylation mediates displacement of the bound G- protein alpha subunit by the arrestin SAG and terminates signaling (PubMed:28524165, PubMed:26200343). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12566452, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2215617, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26200343, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28753425, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7846071, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8107847, ECO:0000305|PubMed:28524165}. |7TM GPCR Srw| |7TM GPCR Srsx| |7tm 1| |Rhodopsin N| |7TM GPCR Srv| |light absorption| |absorption of visible light| |photoreceptor inner segment membrane| |11-cis retinal binding| |rhodopsin mediated signaling pathway| |protein-chromophore linkage| |G protein-coupled photoreceptor activity| |photoreceptor outer segment membrane| |phototransduction, visible light| |Golgi-associated vesicle membrane| |photoreceptor disc membrane| |regulation of rhodopsin mediated signaling pathway| |photoreceptor cell maintenance| |phototransduction| |detection of visible light| |photoreceptor inner segment| |ciliary membrane| |photoreceptor outer segment| |detection of light stimulus| |retina homeostasis| |retinoid metabolic process| |diterpenoid metabolic process| |cellular response to light stimulus| |detection of external stimulus| |terpenoid metabolic process| |detection of abiotic stimulus| |isoprenoid metabolic process| |retina development in camera-type eye| |regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway| |cell-cell junction| |cellular response to radiation| |tissue homeostasis| |visual perception| |sensory perception of light stimulus| |response to light stimulus| |camera-type eye development| |cellular response to abiotic stimulus| |cellular response to environmental stimulus| |multicellular organismal homeostasis| |anatomical structure homeostasis| |eye development| |visual system development| |sensory system development| |response to radiation| |sensory organ development| |Golgi membrane| |detection of stimulus| |G protein-coupled receptor activity| |cellular lipid metabolic process| |sensory perception| |protein phosphorylation| |Golgi apparatus| |regulation of response to external stimulus| |response to abiotic stimulus| |lipid metabolic process| |phosphorylation| |G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway| |nervous system process| |integral component of plasma membrane| |homeostatic process| |system process| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
