Description
Exhibits calmodulin binding activity and identical protein binding activity. Involved in chordate embryonic development and retinol transport. Localizes to integral component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including hindbrain neural plate; immature eye; nervous system; pleuroperitoneal region; and trunk. Used to study syndromic microphthalmia 9. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in syndromic microphthalmia 9. Orthologous to human STRA6 (signaling receptor and transporter of retinol STRA6).
