Guanine nucleotide-binding protein G(I)/G(S)/G(O) subunit gamma-T2 is a

phototransduction
. GNGT2 only occurs in cone cells, and GNGT1 only occurs in rod cells.

As the gamma subunit (Gγ) of three different families of G proteins (G(I)/Gi, G(S)/Gs and G(O)Go), GNGT2 is expressed in at least 23

monocytes of the vertebrate innate immune system, where at increased levels it has been shown to be a potential prognostic marker for some types of cancer, including esophageal cancer.[9]

Several transcript variants encoding the GNGT2 protein have been found for the GNGT2 gene. There is evidence for use of multiple polyadenylation sites by this gene.[6]
