Subunit Dissociation and Diffusion Determine the Subcellular Localization of Rod and Cone Transducins

Activation of rod photoreceptors by light induces a massive redistribution of the heterotrimeric G-protein transducin. In darkness, transducin is sequestered within the membrane-enriched outer segments of the rod cell. In light, it disperses throughout the entire neuron. We show here that redistribu...
