The main purpose of this volume is to provide a focused analysis of the function of the G protein-coupled signaling pathways that operate in the interconnected network of retinal neurons as they detect and encode the information carried by light. The organization of this volume will generally follow the path of signal flow in the retina. First we will describe recent advances in understanding the phototransduction cascade of rod and cone photoreceptors, which use signaling cascade based on the GPCR rhodopsin to transduce incident light into neural activity. Chapters will be devoted to unique specializations of the two major types of ... Read more

Reviews for G Protein Signaling Mechanisms in the Retina
“This is an excellent monograph of Rod and Cone physiology in the retina preparation. … This is an important book for ophthalmology researchers, graduate, and biochemistry students. … It is highly recommended book in visual neurophysiology.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, September, 2015)
