| Primary Identifier | MGI:3649529 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 100038570 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0) Enables opsin binding activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within visual perception. Located in photoreceptor outer segment membrane. Is expressed in photoreceptor layer outer segment and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in retinitis pigmentosa 36. Orthologous to human PRCD (photoreceptor disc component). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele show a defect in photoreceptor disc morphogenesis resulting in vesicle accumulation in the inter-photoreceptor space and a slow progressive retinal rod cell degeneration.
