Proteomic analysis of rod photoreceptor outer segment and characterization of an aminophospholipid transporter-like ATPase
The photoreceptor outer segment is a specialized compartment of rod and cone photoreceptor cells which functions in vertebrate phototransduction, the process which converts light into electrical signals as the initial step in vision. Although the molecular mechanisms underlying phototransduction and...
