Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 9094
Gene name Unc-119 lipid binding chaperone
Gene symbol UNC119
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CORD24HRG4IMD13POC7POC7A
Chromosome 17
Chromosome location 17q11.2
Summary This gene is specifically expressed in the photoreceptors in the retina. The encoded product shares strong homology with the C. elegans unc119 protein and it can functionally complement the C. elegans unc119 mutation. It has been localized to the photorec
