About Cnga3

Summary

Enables intracellular cyclic nucleotide activated cation channel activity. Acts upstream of or within retinal cone cell development. Located in photoreceptor outer segment and plasma membrane. Is expressed in eye; gut; and male reproductive gland or organ. Used to study achromatopsia 2. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in achromatopsia 2 and color blindness. Orthologous to human CNGA3 (cyclic nucleotide gated channel subunit alpha 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
