Impaired Association of Retinal Degeneration-3 with Guanylate Cyclase-1 and Guanylate Cyclase-activating Protein-1 Leads to Leber Congenital Amaurosis-1
5 Dec 2014
Abstract excerpt
One-fifth of all cases of Leber congenital amaurosis are type 1 (LCA1). LCA1 is a severe form of retinal dystrophy caused by loss-of-function mutations in guanylate cyclase 1 (GC1), a key member of the phototransduction cascade involved in modulating the photocurrents. Although GC1 has been studied for some time, the mechanisms responsible for its regulation and membrane targeting are not fully understood. We...
