| Primary Identifier | MGI:1097709 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 20132 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable G protein-coupled photoreceptor activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; cellular response to light stimulus; and phototransduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within signal transduction. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in photoreceptor outer segment and plasma membrane. Is expressed in eye. Orthologous to human RRH (retinal pigment epithelium-derived rhodopsin homolog). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit normal retina morphology but show increased levels of all-trans-retinol in the retina after a photobleach and lower all-trans-retinyl esters in the retinal pigmented epithelium of dark-adapted mice.
