| Name | Rhodopsin |
| Description | 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. |
| UniProt ID | P08100 |
| Gene | RHO |
