Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Predicted to enable actinin binding activity; cadherin binding activity; and cholesterol binding activity. Involved in camera-type eye photoreceptor cell differentiation and retina layer formation. Located in several cellular components, including brush border; photoreceptor outer segment; and prominosome. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; eye; genitourinary system; intestine; and spinal cord floor plate. Used to study retinitis pigmentosa 41. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cone-rod dystrophy 12; retinal macular dystrophy 2; and retinitis pigmentosa 41. Orthologous to human PROM1 (prominin 1).
