Gene nameCNGA1
Protein namecGMP-gated cation channel alpha-1 (Cyclic nucleotide-gated cation channel 1) (Cyclic nucleotide-gated channel alpha-1) (CNG channel alpha-1) (CNG-1) (CNG1) (Cyclic nucleotide-gated channel, photoreceptor) (Rod photoreceptor cGMP-gated channel subunit alpha)
Cyclic nucleotide gated channel subunit alpha 1
SynonymsCNCG
CNCG1
DescriptionFUNCTION: 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. .
