Cross species analysis of Prominin reveals a conserved cellular role in invertebrate and vertebrate photoreceptor cells

open access: yesDevelopmental Biology, 2012
The two fundamental types of photoreceptor cells have evolved unique structures to expand the apical membrane to accommodate the phototransduction machinery, exemplified by the cilia-based outer segment of the vertebrate photoreceptor cell and the microvilli-based rhabdomere of the invertebrate photoreceptor.

Vertebrate photoreceptor cell development and disease

Trends in Cell Biology, 1998
Photoreceptors provide an excellent model for studies of vertebrate neuronal differentiation, and many human diseases resulting in blindness primarily affect photoreceptors. There is therefore great interest in studying the cellular and molecular mechanisms of photoreceptor development.

What drives cell morphogenesis: A look inside the vertebrate photoreceptor [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, 2009
AbstractVision mediating photoreceptor cells are specialized light‐sensitive neurons in the outer layer of the vertebrate retina. The human retina contains approximately 130 million of such photoreceptors, which enable images of the external environment to be captured at high resolution and high sensitivity.

Regions in vertebrate photoreceptor guanylyl cyclase ROS-GC1 involved in Ca2+-dependent regulation by guanylyl cyclase-activating protein GCAP-1

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1999
The membrane bound guanylyl cyclase (GC) photoreceptor membrane GC1 (ROS-GC1) of photoreceptor cells synthesizes cGMP, the intracellular transmitter of vertebrate phototransduction.

An electrical model of the vertebrate photoreceptor cell

Vision Research, 1967
Abstract An electrical model of the vertebrate photoreceptor cell is presented which accounts for the similar configuration and polarity of the intracellularty recorded photoreceptor potential (IPP) and the P III component of the electroretinogram. It is proposed that during illumination the outer segment actively hyperpolarizes causing current to ...

Activation, Deactivation, and Adaptation in Vertebrate Photoreceptor Cells

Annual Review of Neuroscience, 2001
▪ Abstract  Visual transduction captures widespread interest because its G-protein signaling motif recurs throughout nature yet is uniquely accessible for study in the photoreceptor cells. The light-activated currents generated at the photoreceptor outer segment provide an easily observed real-time measure of the output of the signaling cascade, and ...
