Abstract

Cyclic nucleotide-gated channels (CNGC's) contain a putative N-glycosylation site (Asn-X-Ser/Thr) in the linker regions connecting the fourth transmembrane domain (S4) and the ion conduction pore (P-region). This putative N-glycosylation site is highly conserved and thus found in many different CNGC in various organisms, from fruit to human.(omitted)
