Peripherin-2 couples rhodopsin to the CNG channel in outer segments of rod photoreceptors
Outer segments (OSs) of rod photoreceptors are cellular compartments specialized in the conversion of light into electrical signals. This process relies on the light-triggered change in the intracellular levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate, which in turn controls the activity of cyclic nucleoti...
