Calcium-sensor proteins but not bicarbonate ion activate retinal photoreceptor membrane guanylyl cyclase in photoreceptors
Retinal membrane guanylyl cyclase (RetGC), regulated by guanylyl cyclase activating proteins (GCAPs) via negative calcium-feedback, is one of the most critically important enzymes in vertebrate rod and cone physiology, enabling their sensitivity to light. It was also reported that, similarly to olfa...
