| Function |
May play a role in retinal photoreceptors development. {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15914641}. Note=Detected at the outer limiting membrane (OLM) and in the outer plexiform layer (OPL) of the retina. At the OLM, detected apical to the adherens junction (AJ).
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in the retina (at protein level). Highly expressed in the retina. Lower amounts are detected in brain, testis, ARPE-19, RPE/choroid and fetal eye. Isoform 5 is retina-specific. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11414766, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12384283, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15558731, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15914641}.
