Gene information for PDE6H (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5149
Official gene symbolPDE6H
Full namephosphodiesterase 6H, cGMP-specific, cone, gamma
Aliases,RCD3,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes the inhibitory (or gamma) subunit of the cone-specific cGMP phosphodiesterase, which is a tetramer composed of two catalytic chains (alpha and beta), and two inhibitory chains (gamma). It is specifically expressed in the retina, and is involved in the transmission and amplification of the visual signal. Mutations in this gene are associated with retinal cone dystrophy type 3A (RCD3A). [provided by RefSeq]
