Loss of the K(+) channel K(v)2.1 greatly reduces outward dark current and causes ionic dysregulation and degeneration in rod photoreceptors

Vertebrate retinal photoreceptors signal light by suppressing a circulating “dark current” that maintains their relative depolarization in the dark. This dark current is composed of an inward current through CNG channels and NCKX transporters in the outer segment that is balanced by outward current...
