| Primary Identifier | MGI:2662912 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 17 | NCBI Gene Number | 353344 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables 11-cis retinal binding activity and G protein-coupled photoreceptor activity. Involved in entrainment of circadian clock by photoperiod; hyaloid vascular plexus regression; and phototransduction, UV. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in photoreceptor outer segment and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human OPN5 (opsin 5). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele fail to exhibit light/dark entrainment. [provided by MGI curators] |
