Basic Information
This gene encodes the alpha-prime subunit of cone phosphodiesterase, which is composed of a homodimer of two alpha-prime subunits and 3 smaller proteins of 11, 13, and 15 kDa. Mutations in this gene are associated with cone dystrophy type 4 (COD4). [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

Sequence Homology
Humans, mice, and rats have highly similar genes, making them important for disease research and drug development. By studying their gene relationships, researchers can develop effective treatments for both humans and animals. Gene homology among these organisms allows for the translation of animal experimental results to humans, improving disease treatment and prevention.

Disease & Mutation
The fundamental building blocks of an organism's genetic code are its genes. The biological qualities and functions are determined by the genetic instructions they contain. On the other hand, genetic mutations, or differences in their sequence, can result in aberrant protein activity, which impacts cellular function and eventually causes illness. Consequently, thorough investigation into the connection between genetic abnormalities and illnesses is essential for both therapy and prevention. Knowing the genetic abnormalities causing certain diseases can aid in the development of targeted therapies, enhance patients' quality of life, and perhaps lead to the disease's cure.

Transcripts & Proteins
Transcripts are RNA molecules that are created during DNA transcription, and the translation products of these transcripts are proteins that serve numerous roles in the body. Transcripts and proteins are both important in biological research. The research of transcripts can help us uncover the subtle links between genes and illnesses, whereas the study of proteins can help us understand the processes of cellular function and disease etiology, as well as give prospective treatment targets.

Gene Expression
The level of gene activity in a particular tissue or cell can be identified by its expression. Understanding the physiological processes and disease causes of organisms depends heavily on the specificity of gene expression levels in various tissues or cells. A thorough examination of the tissue and cell specificity of gene expression will contribute to the understanding of the genetic basis of disease and offer novel approaches to both prevent and cure disease.

Protein Interaction
Protein-protein interaction is when two or more proteins bind together to perform their functions. It plays a vital role in most biochemical processes, such as signal molecules transmitting signals between cells. Molecular machines within the cells perform important functions through protein-protein interactions.

Drugs
Gene target medications are a novel form of treatment that can alter genes or proteins while also blocking disease processes. It precisely detects and chooses target proteins in order to induce therapeutic effects. Target medications are categorized into several groups based on disease causes and molecular foundation, and numerous ways are employed to treat illnesses.
