Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 6010
Gene name Rhodopsin
Gene symbol RHO
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CSNBAD1OPN2RP4
Chromosome 3
Chromosome location 3q22.1
Summary The protein encoded by this gene is found in rod cells in the back of the eye and is essential for vision in low-light conditions. The encoded protein binds to 11-cis retinal and is activated when light hits the retinal molecule. Defects in this gene are
