Molecular characterization of the cyclic nucleotide-gated cation channel of bovine rod outer segments
The cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) cation channel of rod photoreceptors plays an important role in the perception of light. The channel gating is the final step in the visual transduction cascade. The cloning (Kaupp et al., 1989) of what is now known to be the CNG channel α subunit facilitated its...
