Heterotrimeric G proteins communicate signals from activated G protein-coupled receptors to downstream effector proteins. In the phototransduction pathway responsible for vertebrate vision, the G protein-effector complex is comprised of the GTP-bound transducin α subunit (GαT·GTP) and the cyclic GMP (cGMP) phosphodiesterase 6 (PDE6), which stimulates cGMP hydrolysis leading to hyperpolarization of the photoreceptor cell. Here we report a cryo-electron microscopy (cryoEM) structure of PDE6 complexed to GTP-bound GαT. The structure reveals two GαT·GTP subunits engaging the PDE6 hetero-tetramer at both the PDE6 catalytic core and the PDEγ subunits, driving extensive rearrangements to relieve all inhibitory constraints on enzyme catalysis. Analysis of the conformational ensemble in the cryoEM data highlights the dynamic nature of the contacts between the two GαT·GTP subunits and PDE6 that supports an alternating-site catalytic mechanism. Gao et al. present a cryoEM structure of the visual G protein-effector signaling complex between two GTP-bound transducin α subunits (GαT·GTP) and the cyclic GMP (cGMP) phosphodiesterase 6 (PDE6), revealing the extensive conformational rearrangements involved in enzyme activation during visual excitation.
