About Opn3

Summary

Predicted to enable 11-cis retinal binding activity; G protein-coupled photoreceptor activity; and all-trans retinal binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of cellular respiration; positive regulation of glucose import; and response to blue light. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in photoreceptor outer segment. Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in eye and orbito-sphenoid. Orthologous to human OPN3 (opsin 3).
