Involvement of the calcium sensor GCAP1 in hereditary cone dystrophies
7 Apr 2010
Abstract excerpt
Progressive visual impairment leading to blindness is often associated with inherited retinal dystrophies. These disorders correlate in most cases with mutations in genes that code for proteins of the visual transduction system in rod and cone photoreceptor cells. Recent progress has highlighted the involvement of a neuronal calcium sensor protein that is specifically expressed in rod and cone cells and operates...
