MYO7A protein | the Usher 1B protein MYO7A is required for normal localization and function of the visual retinoid cycle enzyme RPE65. RPE65 normally undergoes a light-dependent translocation to become more concentrated in the central region of the RPE cells. This translocation requires MYO7A | Mus musculus |

additional information | in the dark, RPE65 is distributed more extensively throughout the cell, but upon exposure to light (about 100 lux, 2 h), it becomes concentrated more in the central region | Mus musculus | - |
