Gene: CNGB3
Alternate names for this Gene: ACHM1
Gene Summary: This gene encodes the beta subunit of a cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channel. The encoded beta subunit appears to play a role in modulation of channel function in cone photoreceptors. This heterotetrameric channel is necessary for sensory transduction, and mutations in this gene have been associated with achromatopsia 3, progressive cone dystrophy, and juvenile macular degeneration, also known as Stargardt Disease.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 8
Location in Chromosome : 8q21.3
Description of this Gene: cyclic nucleotide gated channel subunit beta 3
Type of Gene: protein-coding
