Description

Predicted to have G protein-coupled photoreceptor activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; cellular response to light stimulus; and phototransduction. Predicted to localize to integral component of plasma membrane and photoreceptor outer segment. Is expressed in several structures, including digestive system; endocrine system; heart; photoreceptor cell; and visual system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in blue color blindness. Orthologous to human OPN1SW (opsin 1, short wave sensitive).
