Recombinant human GUCA1A protein is a engineered form of the guanylyl cyclase-activating protein 1 (GCAP1), encoded by the GUCA1A gene. GCAP1 belongs to a family of calcium-sensitive proteins that regulate retinal membrane guanylyl cyclases (RetGCs) in photoreceptor cells, playing a critical role in phototransduction recovery and light adaptation. Under low calcium conditions (dark-adapted state), GCAP1 activates RetGCs to synthesize cyclic GMP (cGMP), maintaining cGMP-gated ion channel opening for photoreceptor depolarization. When calcium levels rise during light exposure, GCAP1 dissociates from RetGCs, terminating cGMP production and enabling hyperpolarization.
The recombinant protein (rGUCA1A) is typically expressed in bacterial (e.g., *E. coli*) or mammalian systems with tags for purification, retaining native post-translational modifications when produced in eukaryotic cells. Its production enables biochemical studies of calcium-dependent RetGC regulation and disease mechanisms. Mutations in GUCA1A are associated with autosomal dominant cone-rod dystrophy and retinal degeneration, making rGUCA1A valuable for structural analysis of pathogenic variants and therapeutic development. Recent research focuses on its conformational dynamics, metal ion binding properties (Ca²⁺/Mg²⁺), and interactions with RetGC isoforms. Standard applications include calcium sensitivity assays, crystallographic studies, and drug screening platforms for inherited retinal diseases.
