- Description
- Predicted to have sucrose:proton symporter activity. Involved in melanocyte differentiation and response to light stimulus. Predicted to localize to membrane. Used to study cataract. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in oculocutaneous albinism type IV. Is expressed in several structures, including melanoblast; optic vesicle; pigment cell; presumptive retinal pigmented epithelium; and retina. Orthologous to human SLC45A2 (solute carrier family 45 member 2).
