Retina and pineal gland.
Photoreceptor inner segment. Cell projection, cilium, photoreceptor outer segment. Photoreceptor outer segment membrane; Lipid-anchor; Cytoplasmic side. Perikaryon. Primarily expressed in the inner segments of light-adapted rod photoreceptors, approximately 10% of which translocates from photoreceptor outer segments upon light stimulation (By similarity). Targeting of myristoylated protein to rod photoreceptor outer segments is calcium dependent (By similarity).
