ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is involved in phototransduction. Along with another protein, the encoded protein forms a cGMP-gated cation channel in the plasma membrane, allowing depolarization of rod photoreceptors. This represents the last step in the phototransduction pathway. Defects in this gene are a cause of retinitis pigmentosa autosomal recessive (ARRP) disease. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]
uniprot summary :
CNGA1: a cyclic nucleotide-gated cation channel of rod cells in the retina. Visual signal transduction is mediated by a G-protein coupled cascade using cGMP as second messenger. Activated by cGMP which leads to an opening of the cation channel and thereby causing a depolarization of rod photoreceptors. CNG ion channels exist in the retinal, olfactory and cochlear sensory neurons. Protein type: Membrane protein, multi-pass; Channel, cation; Membrane protein, integral. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 4p12. Cellular Component: integral to plasma membrane; plasma membrane. Molecular Function: protein binding; voltage-gated potassium channel activity; intracellular cAMP activated cation channel activity; intracellular cGMP activated cation channel activity; cGMP binding. Biological Process: rhodopsin mediated signaling; phototransduction, visible light; regulation of membrane potential; regulation of rhodopsin mediated signaling; visual perception; transport. Disease: Retinitis Pigmentosa 49; Retinitis Pigmentosa
