BioRender Template
Phototransduction in Photoreceptors
Description
This template shows phototransduction in photoreceptors, where light activates rhodopsin to trigger transducin, splitting it into alpha, beta, and gamma subunits that activate PDE to break down cGMP into GMP. Insets show that in the dark cGMP keeps an ion channel open to admit Na+ and Ca2+, while lowered cGMP after light exposure closes the channel.
