Summary: Predicted to enable G protein-coupled photoreceptor activity and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to light stimulus; phototransduction; and positive regulation of cytokinesis. Located in photoreceptor outer segment. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in blue cone monochromacy; red color blindness; and red-green color blindness. Orthologous to several human genes including OPN1LW (opsin 1, long wave sensitive) and OPN1MW (opsin 1, medium wave sensitive). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
