General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
metabolism | the interaction network of rhodopsin involving the heterotrimeric G-protein transducin and the monomeric GTPase Rac1 is determined by distinct binding processes, association of transducin and rhodopsin occurs with higher affinity and speed than the binding of Rac1 to rhodopsin. In dark-adapted rod cells, Rac1 cannot compete with transducin for binding to rhodopsin, and signalling can proceed normally. The concentration of transducin has to drop significantly so that Rac1 can bind to rhodopsin, in the outer segment, this occurs only under intense illumination, when transducin is translocated to the inner segment | Bos taurus |
