| Post Translational Modifications | There are 9 conserved cysteine residues in sensory guanylate cyclases, 6 in the extracellular domain, which may be involved in intra- or interchain disulfide bonds. |
| Function | Responsible for the synthesis of cyclic GMP (cGMP) in rods and cones of photoreceptors. Plays an essential role in phototransduction, by mediating cGMP replenishment. May also participate in the trafficking of membrane-asociated proteins to the photoreceptor outer segment membrane. |
