Gene:
guanylate cyclase activator 1C
Gene ID:
204470
Symbol:
GUCA1C
Species:
1000
Description:
Stimulates guanylyl cyclase 1 (GC1) and GC2 when free calcium ions concentration is low and inhibits guanylyl cyclases when free calcium ions concentration is elevated. This Ca(2+)- sensitive regulation of guanylyl cyclase (GC) is a key event in recovery of the dark state of rod photoreceptors following light exposure.
