Expressed in the retina. Expressed by photoreceptors of the interphotoreceptor matrix (IPM) surrounding both rods and cones. IPM occupies the subretinal space between the apices of the retinal pigment epithelium and the neural retina. Detected in the pineal gland.
Photoreceptor outer segment membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Photoreceptor inner segment membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix, interphotoreceptor matrix.
