Photoreceptors and Calcium (Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology)

Description:

Text reviews the understanding of the role of calcium in phototransduction, dark-and light-adaptation, recovery from bleaching and return from the dark state, and synaptic signaling of photoreceptors and their second-order neurons. Includes color plates.
