Function
[OPSD_BOVIN] Photoreceptor required for image-forming vision at low light intensity. Required for photoreceptor cell viability after birth. Light-induced isomerization of 11-cis to all-trans retinal triggers a conformational change leading to G-protein activation and release of all-trans retinal (By similarity).[1] [2] [GNAT1_BOVIN] 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.
Publication Abstract from PubMed
Receptor-ligand interaction: Olfactory receptors (ORs) are G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), which detect signaling molecules such as hormones and odorants. The structure of opsin, the GPCR employed in vision, with a detergent molecule bound deep in its orthosteric ligand-binding pocket provides a template for OR homology modeling, thus enabling investigation of the structural basis of the mechanism of odorant-receptor recognition.
