The series of molecular signals generated as a consequence of a G-protein coupled receptor binding to its physiological ligand. The series of molecular signals generated as a consequence of light impinging on rhodopsin molecules in a photoreceptor cell, followed by the activation of phospholipase C and the subsequent release of inositol trisphosphate. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of rhodopsin-mediated signaling. Hyperpolarization (vertebrates) or depolarization (invertebrates) of the photoreceptor cell membrane via closing/opening of cation specific channels as a result of signals generated by rhodopsin activation by a photon. Any series of molecular signals initiated by the binding of an extracellular ligand to a receptor on the surface of the target cell. The series of molecular signals generated as a consequence of excitation of rhodopsin by a photon.
