Immunogen
A synthetic peptide from the c-terminal region of rat CNGA3 conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein was used as the antigen.

Accession

Also known
CNGA3, cGMP-gated cation channel alpha-3, CNG-3, CNG3, Cyclic nucleotide-gated channel alpha-3, Cyclic nucleotide-gated channel, photoreceptor, Cyclic nucleotide gated cation channel 3, Cone photoreceptor cGMP-gated channel subunit alpha, CNCG3, CNG 3

Target
FUNCTION: Visual signal transduction is mediated by a G-protein coupled cascade using cGMP as second messenger. This protein can be activated by cyclic GMP which leads to an opening of the cation channel and thereby causing a depolarization of cone photoreceptors. Induced a flickering channel gating, weakened the outward rectification in the presence of extracellular calcium, increased sensitivity for L-cis diltiazem and enhanced the cAMP efficacy of the channel when coexpressed with CNGB3 B. Essential for the generation of light-evoked electrical responses in the red-, green- and blue sensitive cones.
Defects in CNGA3 are the cause of achromatopsia type 2 (ACHM2); also known as total colorblindness or rod monochromacy (RMCH2). ACHM2 is an autosomal recessive condition characterized by day blindness and photophobia. In ACHM2 patients the cones are defective and the subjects see better at night.
Subcellular location: Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein
Tissue specificity: Prominently expressed in retina.

Storage
Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at -20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.

Expiry Date
12 months after reconstitution
