Protein Guca1b

URN urn:agi-llid:2979
Connectivity 21
Name Guca1b
Description guanylate cyclase activator 1B (retina)
Notes The protein encoded by this gene is a calcium-binding protein that activates photoreceptor guanylate cyclases. This gene may have arisen due to a gene duplication event since there is a highly similar gene clustered with it on chromosome 6. Mutations in this gene can cause a form of retinitis pigmentosa.
