Atomic-Resolution Views Suggest Function Of Enzyme That Regulates Light-Detecting Signals In Eye

ScienceDaily

An atomic-resolution view of an enzyme found only in the eye has given researchers at the University of Washington (UW) clues about how this enzyme, essential to vision, is activated. The enzyme, phosphodiesterase 6 (PDE6), is central to the way light entering the retina is converted into a cascade of signals to the brain.
