Description
FUNCTION: A light-sensitive calcium channel that is required for inositide-mediated Ca(2+) entry in the retina during phospholipase C (PLC)-mediated phototransduction. Forms a regulated cation channel when heteromultimerized with trpl. SUBUNIT: Interacts preferentially with trpl and interacts to a lower extent with trp. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed predominantly in the rhabdomeres of photoreceptor cells.
