Target Information
Bovine rhodopsin (RHO) is a light-sensitive protein found in the retina of cattle, which is part of the visual system. It plays a crucial role in the process of vision by initiating the visual signal transduction cascade. Rhodopsin is a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) that, when activated by light, triggers a series of biochemical reactions that convert light energy into electrical signals, which are then transmitted to the brain. This protein is responsible for the detection of light and the initiation of the visual process, making it essential for vision in cattle.
