The cGMP-gated channel of the rod photoreceptor — a new type of channel structure?

1990

Recents findings from Numa's laboratory reveal that there might exist a wider variety in channel protein structure than originally anticipated. Recently, the cloning has been reported of the first cGMP-gated ion channel, the vertebrate rod photoreceptor which is activated by cGMP acting from the inside of the rod outer segment membrane
