Summary
Predicted to enable 3',5'-cyclic-AMP phosphodiesterase activity and 3',5'-cyclic-GMP phosphodiesterase activity. Acts upstream of or within photoreceptor cell maintenance and retina development in camera-type eye. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in photoreceptor outer segment membrane. Is expressed in eye; retina; and retina outer nuclear layer. Used to study retinitis pigmentosa. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in retinitis pigmentosa 43. Orthologous to human PDE6A (phosphodiesterase 6A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
