Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.5.0)
Enables microtubule binding activity. Involved in axoneme assembly; photoreceptor cell development; and photoreceptor cell maintenance. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to light stimulus; positive regulation of non-motile cilium assembly; and retina morphogenesis in camera-type eye. Located in several cellular components, including ciliary tip; photoreceptor cell cilium; and photoreceptor inner segment. Part of microtubule associated complex. Is expressed in eye and photoreceptor layer outer segment. Used to study retinitis pigmentosa 1. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in retinitis pigmentosa 1. Orthologous to human RP1 (RP1 axonemal microtubule associated).
