Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Predicted to enable rhodopsin kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of neuron apoptotic process; photoreceptor cell morphogenesis; and post-embryonic retina morphogenesis in camera-type eye. Located in photoreceptor outer segment. Is expressed in eye and retina outer nuclear layer. Used to study Oguchi disease-2. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Oguchi disease-2 and night blindness. Orthologous to human GRK1 (G protein-coupled receptor kinase 1).
