Description
Involved in iridophore differentiation; melanin biosynthetic process; and melanocyte differentiation. Predicted to localize to integral component of membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in actinic keratosis; oculocutaneous albinism type II; pigmentation disease; skin cancer (multiple); and squamous cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human OCA2 (OCA2 melanosomal transmembrane protein).
