Abstract
Cyclic GMP and calcium (Ca2+) are effectors of phototransduction and maintenance of their homeostasis is
critical for photoreceptor cell health and function. Indeed, perturbance of this homeostasis is thought to be a
primary driver of cell death in different forms of retinal degenerations. For example, mutations affecting…
