Description
Predicted to enable Notch binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including opsin transport; photoreceptor cell development; and photoreceptor cell maintenance. Is expressed in brain; eye; gonad; liver; and muscle. Used to study cone-rod dystrophy and retinitis pigmentosa. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in retinitis pigmentosa 25. Orthologous to human EYS (EGF-like photoreceptor maintenance factor).
