Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Predicted to enable farnesylated protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including phototransduction, visible light; regulation of opsin-mediated signaling pathway; and retina homeostasis. Located in photoreceptor inner segment. Used to study Leber congenital amaurosis 4. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Leber congenital amaurosis; Leber congenital amaurosis 4; blindness; and retinitis pigmentosa. Orthologous to human AIPL1 (aryl hydrocarbon receptor interacting protein like 1).
