GNAT2

Guanine nucleotide-binding protein G(t) subunit alpha-2 is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the GNAT2 is_associated_with::gene.

Function
Transducin is a 3-subunit guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein) which stimulates the coupling of rhodopsin and cGMP-phoshodiesterase during visual impulses. The transducin alpha subunits in rods and cones are encoded by separate genes. This gene encodes the alpha subunit in cones.
