About Opn1sw

Summary

Predicted to enable G protein-coupled photoreceptor activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; cellular response to UV-A; and phototransduction. Located in cell body; photoreceptor outer segment; and terminal bouton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in blue color blindness. Orthologous to human OPN1SW (opsin 1, short wave sensitive).
