The transporter-opsin-G protein-coupled receptor (TOG) superfamily is a protein superfamily of

integral membrane proteins, usually of 7 or 8 transmembrane alpha-helical segments (TMSs). It


includes (1) ion-translocating microbial rhodopsins and (2) G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), (3)
Sweet sugar transporters, (4) nicotinamide ribonucleoside uptake permeases (PnuC; TC# 4.B.1),
(5) 4-toluene sulfonate uptake permeases (TSUP); TC# 2.A.102), (6) Ni2+–Co2+ transporters
(NiCoT); TC# 2.A.52), (7) organic solute transporters (OST); TC# 2.A.82),
(8) phosphate:Na+ symporters (PNaS); TC# 2.A.58) and (9) lysosomal cystine transporters
(LCT); TC# 2.A.43).[1][2]
