Within its native membrane, rhodopsin is found at a high density facilitating its ability to capture photons. Due to its dense packing within the membrane, there is a higher chance of rhodopsin capturing proteins. However, the high density also provides a disadvantage when it comes to G protein signaling because the diffusion becomes more difficult in a crowded membrane that is packed with the receptor, rhodopsin.
