The Na(+)/Ca(2+), K(+) exchanger NCKX4 is required for efficient cone-mediated vision

Calcium (Ca(2+)) plays an important role in the function and health of neurons. In vertebrate cone photoreceptors, Ca(2+) controls photoresponse sensitivity, kinetics, and light adaptation. Despite the critical role of Ca(2+) in supporting the function and survival of cones, the mechanism for its ex...
