Retinal Cyclic Nucleotide-Gated Channel Regulation by Calmodulin

Retinal Cyclic Nucleotide-Gated Channel Regulation by Calmodulin

Retinal cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) ion channels bind to intracellular cGMP and mediate visual phototransduction in photoreceptor rod and cone cells. Retinal rod CNG channels form hetero-tetramers comprised of three CNGA1 and one CNGB1 protein subunits. Cone CNG channels are similar tetramers cons...
