Cryo-EM structure of human cGMP-bound open CNGA1 channel in Na+
Structural highlights
DiseaseCNGA1_HUMAN Retinitis pigmentosa. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. FunctionCNGA1_HUMAN Subunit of the rod cyclic GMP-gated cation channel, which is involved in the final stage of the phototransduction pathway. When light hits rod photoreceptors, cGMP concentrations decrease causing rapid closure of CNGA1/CNGB1 channels and, therefore, hyperpolarization of the membrane potential.[UniProtKB:Q00194] See Also
