Summary
GUCA1B (guanylate cyclase activator 1B, HGNC:4679) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 6p21.1, encoding Guanylyl cyclase-activating protein 2 (Q9UMX6). Stimulates two retinal guanylyl cyclases (GCs) GUCY2D and GUCY2F when free calcium ions concentration is low, and inhibits GUCY2D and GUCY2F when free calcium ions concentration is elevated.
The protein encoded by this gene is a calcium-binding protein that activates photoreceptor guanylate cyclases. This gene may have arisen due to a gene duplication event since there is a highly similar gene clustered with it on chromosome 6. Mutations in this gene can cause a form of retinitis pigmentosa.

All UniProt accessions (1): Q9UMX6
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Stimulates two retinal guanylyl cyclases (GCs) GUCY2D and GUCY2F when free calcium ions concentration is low, and inhibits GUCY2D and GUCY2F when free calcium ions concentration is elevated. This Ca(2+)-sensitive regulation of GCs is a key event in recovery of the dark state of rod photoreceptors following light exposure. May be involved in cone photoreceptor response and recovery of response in bright light.
Subcellular location. Cell membrane. Photoreceptor inner segment. Cell projection. Cilium. Photoreceptor outer segment.
Tissue specificity. In the retina, it is expressed in cone and rod photoreceptor cells.
Post-translational modifications. The N-terminus is blocked.
Disease relevance. Retinitis pigmentosa 48 (RP48) [MIM:613827] A retinal dystrophy belonging to the group of pigmentary retinopathies. Retinitis pigmentosa is characterized by retinal pigment deposits visible on fundus examination and primary loss of rod photoreceptor cells followed by secondary loss of cone photoreceptors. Patients typically have night vision blindness and loss of midperipheral visual field. As their condition progresses, they lose their far peripheral visual field and eventually central vision as well. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Miscellaneous. Binds three calcium ions.
