The excitation cascade of <it>Limulus </it>ventral photoreceptors: guanylate cyclase as the link between InsP<sub>3</sub>-mediated Ca<sup>2+ </sup>release and the opening of cGMP-gated channels
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Early stages in the excitation cascade of <it>Limulus </it>photoreceptors are mediated by activation of G<sub>q </sub>by rhodopsin, generation of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate by phospholipase-C and the release...
