G protein subunit gamma transducin 2
Alias
G-GAMMA-8 | G-GAMMA-C | GNG8 | GNG9 | GNGT8
Phototransduction in rod and cone photoreceptors is regulated by groups of signaling proteins. 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].
